On the fifteenth day of the first month, Zhoucun Street was very lively, and the annual Zhoucun core performance was staged on this street. According to textual research, the core of Zhoucun originated in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, when it was given the title of "the first village in the world" by Emperor Qianlong. Temple fairs are often held in Zhoucun, and various forms of folk traditional cultural activities gather together to perform alone. Due to the large audience, many people stood on tiptoe and could not watch the actors' performances in front of the crowd. As a result, some old artists in Zhoucun were inspired by stilts and candle lampstands, imitating the phantom shaking on the wick in the first year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, and firmly inserting iron bars on the pedestal similar to the lampstand. On the top of the iron fence stood a child dressed as a dramatic figure, which looked like dancing on a candle wick from a distance. The core of Zhoucun was formed and developed, and gradually spread to the surrounding areas of Zhoucun.
Later, Zhoucun people moved the unique folk performance form of Core to the traditional festival Lantern Festival in China, which gradually evolved into a highlight of Zhoucun Lantern Festival. Zhoucun's "core" performances are mainly drama stories and folklore, such as The West Chamber, The Story of Lu Bu and Diusim, Luo Cheng Selling Wool, The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, The Drunk Maids and so on. In 2008, Zhoucun "Core" was listed as "China National Intangible Cultural Heritage".

The Lantern Festival in Boshan embodies the culture of filial piety.

Boshan Lantern is one of the origins of Zibo Lantern, and the representative is the Legend of Fu Xiaohe by Boshan, which consists of four sets of lanterns: Yan Wenjiang was abused, Taibai Venus gave him a whip, saved his in-laws, and sang the sutra of filial piety, showing people the story of the origin of filial piety and shaping the image of an ancient filial wife.

Dictyophora Zichuan
Look at Zichuan's "Strike the Iron Flower" and experience that kind of pleasure.
Playing iron flowers in Zichuan is a traditional entertainment activity in Xiguan village, which began in the first year of Daoguang in Qing Dynasty. At that time, industries such as smelting, casting and making cars (wooden unicycle) in Liulongqiao, Xiguan were prosperous, and skilled craftsmen gathered here. At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, craftsmen get together and have a good time. The potters are ingenious, throwing the remaining iron juice into the air and splashing iron flowers, which is very entertaining and ornamental. Since then, this form of entertainment has been handed down from generation to generation in Xiguan Village, becoming a traditional program, and with the passage of time, the acting skills have been improved day by day.
It is understood that during the Lantern Festival every year, whenever night falls, Xiguan Village will choose a flat section of the river beach near the water, put up a pine door and build a stove to melt the broken iron into iron juice. The performer holds a special wooden board in his hand, covered with sawdust, stands by the hearth, scoops in iron juice with a crucible spoon, faces the river, throws the iron juice up, and hits it into the air with the wooden board when it falls. With the banging sound, one after another iron flowers flew into the sky. Looking closely, it seems like throwing gold and silver, and the goddess is scattered; From a distance, it's like a golden snake dancing wildly, and lightning split empty. See things in a blur, too many things to see.
Look at Linzi's Step on an Inch.
"Village" is a wooden prop of folk dance. It is 10-20cm short and 30-50cm long, with pointed embroidered shoes at the bottom. When an actor steps on the village to perform, it is called stepping on the village, which is also called "singing yangko". During the performance, the long trouser legs covered the wooden stake, only revealing the embroidered shoes underneath, which was humorous and playful and catered to the aesthetic view of "three-inch golden lotus" in ancient society.
Treading in Linzi District originated from Gualizhuang (now Yongshun Village) in Qidu Town and zhang jia zhuang generation in the late Qing Dynasty. After more than 200 years of development, it has been passed down for more than 8 generations. At present, Zhang Jiazhuang's stepping on the inch is more active.
Legend has it that the dance of Xiaohua in stepping on an inch evolved from a dry boat in the Sui Dynasty. In the Sui Dynasty, there was an exquisite dry boat in the palace. Emperor Yang Di sat on it and ordered the maid to follow it, singing "Sister Tone" as they walked. For fun, he had red chestnuts scattered on the ground, and the maids trudged, showing the embarrassment of walking forward and then falling down. This is the embryonic form of the dance action of "going forward and falling back" on the inch. Stepping on an inch is mainly about singing "sister tunes", including dancing, singing minor tunes, roller boating, playing flower drums, beating the whip of the overlord, and catching demons intelligently.
