On the third day of the Lunar New Year, come to Hua'e Building to see the unique New Year blessings of the Hakka people

There are thousands of Hakka customs, and the Spring Festival and Lantern Festival account for the majority💫 Dear friends, Happy New Year! On the third day of the Lunar New Year, I went to the Hua'e Building in Daqiutian Village, Dapu County, Meizhou to participate in a grand New Year blessing event, which was super lively! What excited me was that the folk style here is unique, and even the ceremonies and decorations are full of rich Hakka flavor, it's really interesting!💃 First is the ancient and solemn 'incense procession' ceremony. Early in the morning, the elders dressed in traditional costumes carried the statues of gods, while the young people and children held colored flags, accompanied by a drum team, forming a long procession. We paraded around the village, constantly ringing music along the way, and the villagers bowed respectfully and prayed to the gods. This part is called the 'incense procession' ceremony, it's like a mobile temple fair, so lively!🎉 Then comes the most important 'Kouxu' ceremony. After the parade, the whole village gathered in the Hua'e Building to prepare for 'Kouxu'. In the chanting of the clan leader, we prayed for blessings according to traditional ceremonies. Everyone worked together, hoping that the new year would be smooth and peaceful, families harmonious, and everything prosperous. The entire Hua'e Building was filled with a festive atmosphere, you will definitely be attracted by the long Eight Immortals table! There are offerings of chicken, rice cakes, and wine, it's really lively!😍 By the way, Hua'e Building is the largest round house in Guangdong, usually a scenic spot! But three days before and after the blessing event, no tickets are needed, remember to plan your trip in advance! If you drive there, just search for Hua'e Building and you'll find it, very convenient!🚗 In short, the New Year blessing event I spent in Hua'e Building was great! The unique charm of Hakka customs and the vibrant atmosphere made me deeply feel the joy of the Spring Festival and the strong festive atmosphere. You should come and experience it next time! Remember to plan well, arrange your trip in advance, and don't miss this rare opportunity!🎊
