Is there a Lantern Festival in Nanchuan District of Chongqing?

As of 216, there is no Lantern Festival in Nanchuan District of Chongqing.

February 16th, 214, the 15th day of the first lunar month, is the traditional Lantern Festival in China.

Playing with dragon lanterns and rocking flower boats ... On that day, Nanchuan District held the Happy Lantern Festival and the People's Stage-the square dance performance in the characteristic cultural community, singing and dancing to make Lantern Festival, and the city was filled with festive atmosphere.

Of course, dragon dancing is indispensable for Lantern Festival. Nanping Town and Shuijiang Town both performed dragon lantern tricks. The difference is that "Dragon Dance" in Nanping Town is a single dragon. I saw men and women dressed in festive costumes holding tens of meters of dragons and drumming, with steady and light steps. The dragons flew over, and sometimes the dragons went out to sea and sometimes they drove Xiangyun, indicating that the weather was good in the New Year and the crops were plentiful. What Shuijiang Town brought was "Two Dragons Playing with Beads". The dragon dancers were dressed in yellow and red, and they were full of energy. The two dragons were tumbling up and down and flying together. The scene was very beautiful.

Similarly, the wonderful performance drew the audience to the front, and the stage was reduced, so that the "Dragon" could not show its skills, which made the dragon wrestle in the sky and made the audience laugh. "In the past, the dragon dances on Lantern Festival were all parades, which were not limited by the venue, but considering the urban traffic, I decided to perform in the square." An actor who participated in the dragon dance said, "Performing a program is to make people happy, and it is our purpose to make the audience laugh."

In addition to traditional dragon dances, flower boats, gongs and drums, there are hip-hop, Latin dance and crutch dance full of fashion. The actors have a great age span, ranging from children aged six or seven to elderly friends with strong posture, which truly embodies the "people's stage".

When the melody of the well-known "The Sound of Music" started, a group of children in colorful clothes flew onto the stage like Hua Hudie. Although it is an English song, many viewers don't know the main idea of the lyrics, but it doesn't affect the beauty of the dance at all. This program, brought by the Estee Dance Training Center, combines a variety of dances. Against the background of "Hua Hudie" in the front row, folk dance, ballet and Latin dance slowly come on stage, and the whole square seems to be a dance floor for fighting. When the actors dressed in Mickey and Minnie cartoon characters walked onto the stage, the watching children clapped their hands with joy.

Then, colorful programs such as Dancing Youth, Fashion Show, Burning Floor and Walking Stick Dance were staged one after another, which filled the sunny Lantern Festival with laughter.
