What's interesting about the temple fair in Tianshui?

In the long history of the Chinese nation, the four major temple fairs in Tianshui have offered sacrifices to Fuxi, the ancestor of mankind, in various ways. It is said that Fuxi was born in spring, so he was born in autumn. Therefore, people offered sacrifices to Fuxi twice a year in Qin and autumn, forming two forms: public sacrifice (official sacrifice) and folk sacrifice. Historically, there were public sacrifices in the imperial temples headed by Fuxi, the capital of Beijing, and the emperor personally offered sacrifices every year. In the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court ordered all states, counties and counties to set up temples to worship their ancestors. In order to commemorate Fuxi, the ancestor of mankind, inherit the traditional sacrificial heritage, carry forward Fuxi culture in Tianshui and promote the development of tourism, Tianshui successfully held the "First Fuxi Cultural Tourism Festival in Tianshui" on May 13, 988, and held a grand ceremony to pay tribute to Fuxi. Since then, Tianshui has successively held the 16 Fuxi Cultural Festival. The content of the festival is getting bigger and bigger every time, attracting more and more Chinese and international friends at home and abroad to visit Tianshui. The success of the cultural festival has played a great role in promoting Tianshui, popularizing Tianshui and developing Tianshui economy, and this role and effect have gradually appeared in many fields of our city. Every year on the ninth day of the first lunar month, Tianshui citizens will go out of the city to see the "pilgrimage" in Yuquan, which is one of the biggest mass cultural activities in Tianshui. The meeting on the ninth day of the first lunar month was the birthday of the Jade Emperor. Later, Taoist temples held sacrifices on this day every year. Yuquanguan is a famous Taoist resort in the whole northwest, and now it has been changed to Yuquanguan Park. Every year, from the evening of the eighth day of the first month, citizens flock to this place like a flood. From the front, firecrackers are ringing and it's very lively. At 0: 00, it was almost crowded with people ringing bells and drums, and people's cheers were harmonious. It was not until the next morning that people gradually stopped. On the ninth day of the temple fair, people from far and near gathered in yuquan temple in groups of three or five, which set off another climax of "viewing the DPRK". The delicious food before viewing is attractive, and all kinds of goods are dazzling. At this time, the plywood team dressed in ancient costumes is dazzling. At the same time, folk instrumental music such as dance drums, gongs, flutes and suona are attached to the plywood, giving people a rough and unrestrained feeling. For a time, Qin Feng and Qin Yun attracted thousands of people and formed a picture of human music with both traditional folk culture and modern life. Tianshui's "Shangjiu" Chaoguanwei is also a special scenery. When people go down the mountain, they have to buy a pile of winter grass. The green winter grass symbolizes people's good wishes for good luck and a better life. Fuxi Temple will be held on the 16th day of the first lunar month, which is Fuxi's birthday party. On this day, it is the famous "ancestor" temple fair of Fuxi Temple in Tianshui. For Tianshui people, this day every year is a day to pay homage to Fuxi, the ancestor of mankind, in order to remember the kindness of ancestors, carry forward Fuxi culture and promote social unity and progress. On this day, the atmosphere of the Spring Festival was pushed to the top of the mountain, and people were beaming and shuttling back and forth in festive costumes.
