Nie Manman, 11, who played a leading role in "Red Lantern," a folk dance of Chinese ethnic Han, said learning Chinese dances has inspired her to know more about her cultural root.

"Red lantern is a symbol of good luck and happiness. I'm very happy to perform the dance, thus helping add more festivity amid the new year," the young artist told Xinhua, adding that she would continue to learn more Chinese dances since "they are interesting, and with quite charm and artistic style."
