Photo taken on January 27, 2010 shows the hand-woven straw handicraft of two pairs of 30-meter-long dragons and phoenixes with the connotation of bringing forth auspice and prosperity, on the building of the Liuzhou Museum in Liuzhou, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It took over half a year for some 90 local villagers of the Dong ethnic group to elaborate this handicraft of straw-woven dragon and phoenix in their century-old custom of praying for blessing and felicity.
