Chinese New Year #3

For more than a year I traveled the streets of one of the most picturesque neighborhoods of Madrid: Usera, also known as the Little China of Madrid (Spain). There is no doubt that the presence of this community has enriched the life of the capital. An example of this is the celebration of Chinese New Year, in which thousands of people come to Usera to see the colorful parades that run through its streets and learn about some of the traditions of this community.
