Temple fair integrates tourism, leisure and entertainment, shopping and catering, and has distinctive traditional ethnic characteristics. There are many folk activities at the temple fair, such as touching stone monkeys, making money at Wofeng Bridge and so on. Below the arc-shaped stone carving of Baiyun Temple, there is a stone monkey relief. People think that touching stone monkeys can eliminate diseases and prolong life, so they compete to touch them. There is a big copper coin hanging in the bridge opening under the phoenix bridge. There is a small copper bell in the hole of the copper coin, which reads "The bell rings auspicious". If you can hit the bronze bell with a coin in your hand, you will get what you want. These two events are the most lively activities at the temple fair. The custom of temple fairs is closely related to the religious activities of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, and it is often necessary to hold ceremonies to worship the gods. Such as the "line image" activity. "Walking like an elephant" is a religious ceremony in which statues of gods and buddhas are mounted on floats and paraded in urban and rural areas, so it is also called "walking around the city" and "patrolling the city". After Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved to Luoyang in the ninth year (AD 485), Buddhism was promoted, and a Buddha statue travel conference was held every year on Sakyamuni's birthday. The day before the Buddha's trip, all the temples in Luoyang sent the Buddha to Jingming Temple. For a long time, there were more than 1000 Buddha statues. When traveling, the team is led by lions to ward off evil spirits, and the buildings are covered with banners. Then, there are all kinds of music, juggling and excitement. Most of the temple fairs after Tang and Song Dynasties are the inheritance and development of the image activities in this period. And gradually extended to Sichuan, Huguang and Xixia. Only after the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, the trend of the image declined, and few people recorded it. As soon as the temple fair opened, people from all directions came to worship, offering sacrifices to the gods and burning incense, and praying to return home. This is an activity of offering sacrifices to gods around "temple" and "meeting", which is the theme of traditional temple fairs. Among them, praying for children with witchcraft can best reflect the core of China traditional culture, which is determined by the nature of China agricultural society. Thousands of years of feudal society, people's living environment has basically not changed, and the reproduction of future generations has become a top priority for thousands of years. Therefore, praying for the son, an ancient form of witchcraft, will be attached to various forms of gatherings and displayed. Typical temple fairs in this respect are Renzu Temple Fair in Huaiyang, Henan, Mazu Tempel Temple Fair in Tianjin, Shuanglin Temple Fair in Pingyao, Shanxi, Miaofeng Mountain and Baiyun Temple in Beijing [4]. The ancestral temple in Huaiyang, dedicated to Nuwa and Taihao Fuxi, can be said to be the most primitive temple fair of religion and witchcraft. The ancestral temple in the north of Huaiyang is said to be the place where the skulls of Tai Hao and Fuxi are buried, so it is also called Taihaoling. Every year from February 2nd to March 2nd, the Terran Temple Fair is held for one month. Its main activities are ancestor worship and "tying dolls". Married and childless women should dig out the "children's kiln" symbolizing the door of fertility during the temple fair and buy back some local mud toys "mud dogs" in order to give birth as soon as possible. These clay toys made of loess have different shapes of "human-faced monkeys", which are called "ancestor monkeys" by locals, as well as all kinds of weird and interesting animal toys, such as monkeys with bellies, monkeys with heads and swallows, two-headed tigers, cows, pigs, horses and sheep. Besides offering them to their ancestors, women also take them home as children's toys.

Among them, there are mainly: Shaanxi opera, shoulder pole play (puppet show), cross talk, double reed, magic (called "magic" in ancient China, commonly known as "magic"), counting treasures, playing banners, yangko, stilts and so on. The dough sculpture folk temple fair in Beijing temple fair has attracted ordinary people with its special charm. The toy market at the temple fair is the most gaudy. In the folk children's toy stalls, there are masks, puppet shows, cars, knives and guns, bamboo dragons and so on.

Everything in the rings was theirs. Shake color. Put a wooden pallet with a pointer and put some toys in it. Customers spend some money and start the pointer with a button. When the pointer stops running, any toy it points to belongs to the customer. Shoot me. Set up a cabinet with several small doors, which are filled with toys and targets on the doors. Customers buy cork bullets from the stall owner and shoot at the target. If you hit it, the door will open automatically and the toys inside will belong to the customer [4]. Some fixed dates, the modern holding time is mostly the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and other festivals [4]. The local product market is the main market of temple fair trade. In the old temple fair, before the trade activities, a ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods was held. For example, the Hou Ji Temple Fair in Yongfeng Town, pucheng county, is held on the sixth day of June every year with a court ceremony, which is solemn and solemn. Early in the morning of the congress, all local officials and gentry with status should bathe, change clothes and dress neatly, enter Houji Temple, and bow down to the statue of Hou Ji, the agricultural god. Everyone sings "Yongfeng": "Farmers sow grain first, and then match it another day. I have steamed people for thousands of years. Agriculture is auspicious and windy. It's just right to grow crops in the field, son. " There are music classes and song classes to cooperate with. After the ceremony, you can trade freely. Most agricultural tools are made of wood, such as plows, hoes, shovels, Mu Cha, poles, carts, carts, sickles, hoes and hay cutters. For example, at Huxian Temple Fair, people like to buy "xiyang village's' wrong end' (referring to wooden shovel handle), Nanyang Village's' thin plate' (referring to shovel board) and Dongyang Village's' multi-eye' (referring to bamboo sieve)."

In the past, farmers usually brought their own dry food to save money. After they entered the restaurant, they broke the dry food into small pieces and processed them with each other. Farmers say that eating in this kind of museum, "you can eat fried fire without spending much money" ("fried fire" is the Guanzhong dialect, that is, the temperature. ) The seller of persimmon cakes in Huang Gui pays attention to chopping the cakes into pieces on the chopping board, and then uncovering the pieces with tweezers, so that customers can see what stuffing (usually soft candy, walnut kernel, green shredded pork, Huang Gui sauce and rose sauce) is wrapped inside, so as to attract customers. The seller of oil cakes should string the cakes with a rope and let the customers take them away.
