Fu Yang Festival is a traditional Chinese food festival, which starts on the first day of the traditional lunar calendar and ends at the last day of the lunar calendar every year and lasts for one month. "Eating sheep in the dog days" has a long history in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, which can be traced back to the Yao and Shun period. Since ancient times, there has been a saying among the people in Xuzhou that "a bowl of soup for a sheep does not require a doctor to prescribe a prescription". ?
"Fu Yang", that is, mutton after crouching. "The Biography of Han Yang Yun" records: "The Tian family worked hard, and when they were old, they were full of wax, and the sheep were full of lambs, and they fought for wine." Eating mutton on a dog's day is a great pioneering work of taking food as a treatment, which can heat the body, sweat and detoxify, and drive away the poison and moisture in winter and spring. Xuzhou Pengzu Fuyang Festival was awarded the title of Jiangsu Provincial Intangible Cultural Heritage. The 218 China Fuyang Festival opened in Xuzhou on July 16th.
