Balloon artists Sze Tai "Wilson" Pang and Kun Lung Ho led more than 60 volunteers in constructing the sculpture.

The sculpture was created as part of Chinese New Year celebrations and will remain in place until the end of February. The artists said the biggest challenge was to make sure the dragon remained in one piece without any kind of non-balloon support structure.
