Coinciding with the Lantern Festival in the Year of the Rabbit, the opening ceremony and Happy Lantern Festival were held at Wuxiang Road Night Market in Nanning, Guangxi. Wuxiang Road Night Market is a key night economic project in Liangqing District. The project is located in Wuxiang Road, Jinxiang District 3, Dashatian Street, Liangqing District, Nanning, and the subway line 2 is direct. Night market street is about 500 meters long. The night market vigorously develops the night market economy, solves social employment, and absorbs the mobile stalls that used to occupy the road to enter the Wuxiang Road night market for standardized and orderly operation.
Wuxiang Road Night Market Street skillfully combines the national characteristics of Zhuang nationality, tradition and modernity, and constructs an immersive experience of "Nanning, a city that never sleeps, and a prosperous Nanning". The goal is to become a landmark night market pedestrian street in Liangqing District of Nanning, which integrates food, supper and immersive experience. The birth of Wuxiang Road Night Market Street not only transformed the scattered and disorderly night market around it into a standardized, clean and orderly night market economy.
Guangxi Lantern Festival custom:
1, Saiden
The custom of Lantern Festival is very popular in the minority areas in northwest and southwest Guangxi. On the night of the Lantern Festival, people will take out their own lanterns to compete to see who is the best and most skilled. People not only compete with each other for lights, but also compete with the moon for glory. All kinds of lights are hung on trees or placed on the ground to form colorful night scenes.
2. Dragon dance
Dragon dance is a popular folk entertainment activity of the Yao and Han nationalities in Fuchuan, especially the Wuyuan Yao Village in Dongshan, which is quite famous and is also the heritage of the worship of the Yao Dragon King. Besides the dragon dance in the Spring Festival, there are also dragon dances in festivals, temple fairs and festivals. Yao Jia Dragon Dance Festival is held from the second day to the fifteenth day of the first month of each year, which happens to be the Lantern Festival, so it is also called Shangyuan Lantern Festival.
