Not only the small towns of ancient villages are fascinating, but the traditions are equally splendid

How to have fun during the New Year? 🧨🧨 📸 Traditional folk activities are best seen in small places! Songyang County in Lishui City, Zhejiang, a small county with a history of over 1800 years, is famous for its secret ancient villages that have been popular for a long time. Besides, it is desirable for preserving various intact customs. 🎬 The Lantern Festival this time coincided with the local Dazhuxi traditional offering ceremony, which has a history of several hundred years. This village has 8 community platforms, and every year from the 14th to the 16th of the first lunar month, villagers set up the Eight Immortals table in their community platform's ancestral hall, placing a variety of exquisite offerings. These offerings are very interesting; the villagers use their wisdom to make them into various shapes, such as elephants made from pig stomachs, and Jiang Taigong fishing made from chicken and seaweed... Dazzling, lively, and distinctive. Each community platform's offering ceremony varies in scale, which is determined by the population... 🎯 Interesting traditional customs should be protected
