What are the traditional festivals in Hainan in March? Thank you gods.
The traditional folk festivals of Li nationality in Hainan province are also called love scenes, and they are called "Fu Nian Fu" in Li language. It is held on the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar every year. The "March 3rd" Festival of Li nationality is a traditional festival for young men and women of Li nationality to pursue love and happiness on the third day of the third lunar month every year. The "Three Have Three" activities include: singing contest, spring fire party, float contest, light show, national traditional sports competition, young men and women duet, folk song and dance performance and economic and trade activities. Today, the "March 3" of the Li nationality has become a grand event to enrich tourism products, spread national culture and promote national economic development, attracting tens of thousands of domestic and foreign tourists to watch and participate every year. The third day of March is celebrated in the Li nationality area to worship the ancestors of the Li nationality and wish them a bumper harvest in farming and hunting. Legend has it that in ancient times, the Li people living in Changhua River suffered a severe flood, which flooded the mountain villages, leaving only a couple sitting in a ladle and drifting to the edge of Yanwo Mountain. On the third day of March, the flood had receded, and the two swore to be husband and wife. After their marriage, they spun and wove in Yanwoling, having children, farming, digging ponds and raising fish, and breeding offspring for the Li nationality. In order to commemorate their ancestors, people gather on the bank of Changhua River on the third day of the third lunar month every year to sing and sow love, which is passed down from generation to generation and becomes a festival. According to legend, a long time ago, the Li people living in Changhua River suffered a catastrophic flood, and both people and animals died, leaving only a pair of brothers and sisters-Tian Fei and Nanyin. They sat in a gourd, floated to the Yanwoling Mountain and were stuck by branches, only to survive. When the two brothers and sisters grew up, they decided to look for partners separately and meet each other on March 3 every year. After that, on March 3rd every year, when flowers and cotton trees are in full bloom, Nanyin and Tian Fei's wives and their grandchildren will be here to welcome the arrival of spring. To commemorate them, the Li family called this cave "Mother Cave", and March 3rd naturally became a grand festival for the Li family. On this day every year, men, women and children outside the village come here from all directions with glutinous rice wine, zongzi and bamboo rice plates. During the day, the young man went to the stream to catch fish, and the girl grilled fish beside the young man, and put the grilled fish and zongzi together at the mouth of the cave to worship; In the evening, by the flaming bonfire, accompanied by the sound of flute, drum and other musical instruments, unmarried men and women sang and danced, laughed and played, sang folk songs to each other, chose songs to pair up, forged a deep friendship and sowed the seeds of love. Li's hometown is at the foot of Wuzhishan. When I go back to my hometown on March 3 every year, I deeply realize that "glutinous rice wine is not as sweet as Li, and the beauty is not as good as Li's March 3". By the campfire, the young man was singing and dancing, while the girl watched and listened quietly. She didn't like it, so she replied with folk songs. If you like that young man, you will quietly come out of the dark and go to the stream to play the nose shaw affectionately. When the young man smells the leisurely rustling sound, he is full of longing and meaning. He came to the girl and sang love songs with him until dawn. Just like the love song they sang, "On Wuzhishan, vines bite vines, vines bite vines and take root. My brother loves my sister to bite vines, and my sister loves my brother to take root." After the reform and opening up, the ancient folk customs have injected new contents, and the national culture has become more colorful. March 3 has become an integral part of Hainan's ethnic customs, attracting more domestic and foreign tourists to visit here.
