Liangshan Bauhinia, also known as Bauhinia, belongs to the genus Bauhinia of the Fabaceae family and is an evergreen tree. Its leaves are heart-shaped, round and shiny, with light and shadows that are quite moving. The racemes are short, the flowers are pink, sometimes with purple and white stripes, beautiful and slightly fragrant. The flowering period is mainly in winter and spring, and it blooms before the leaves in early spring. The branches and trunks are covered with pink flowers, which are gorgeous and lovely. The flower language of Bauhinia includes family affection, brotherly harmony, and prosperous family business, implying that the family can be harmonious and the brothers can have deep affection. Bauhinia also symbolizes unswerving and unyielding love. In some areas, Bauhinia is regarded as a token between lovers. If you meet your beloved, you will give Bauhinia to each other, so Bauhinia is also a flower of love. In Xichang City, Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province, Bauhinia is a common flower that blooms every spring, adding a touch of bright color to the city. #Scenery on the road #Urban humanities notes #Capturing urban humanities #Romantic travel destinations in China

🌟Butuo: The Millennium Secret Land of the Yi Nationality in the Clouds 🏔️ Above the clouds of Liangshan, Sichuan, there is a small town written in the epic of the Yi nationality - Butuo. It is 3,000 meters above sea level. It is the birthplace of the Torch Festival and the pure land where the traditional culture of the Yi nationality is best preserved. Walking in Butuo County, you can see Yi people wearing woolen blankets "Chaerwa" everywhere. The silver ornaments on their chests shine in the sun, as if telling the story of this ancient nation. 🪕 In the early morning of Butuo, I heard a beautiful legend about the mouth harp: According to legend, in ancient times, the Yi youth A'er fell in love with the headman's daughter Ayi, and the headman asked him to use the stars in the sky as a betrothal gift. A'er made a mouth harp that could play the sound of stars with bamboo pieces, and finally moved the headman. Today, this song "Star Ballad" is still circulating in Butuo. During the Yi New Year, the Bimo (priest) in the village will use the mouth harp to pray for the newlyweds. 🔥 The origin of the Torch Festival is in Butuo! Every year on the 24th day of the sixth lunar month, tens of thousands of torches will light up the entire county. Legend has it that in ancient times, the gods punished the world, and the ancestors of the Yi people led the tribe to hold up torches to disperse locusts. Now the Torch Festival has been listed as a national intangible cultural heritage. The most shocking thing is the "Duge" dance - thousands of Yi men play the moon guitar, sing and dance around the fire, and the "hero knot" floating in the firelight is particularly spectacular. 🌾 The ruins of the Adu Tusi Yamen record the past of Butuo's Tusi. Only broken walls and ruins remain of this building more than 300 years ago, but the remaining carved door frames are still exquisite. Local elders said that the last Tusi, Abdul Ziha, once collected 108 volumes of Yi books in the Yamen. These epics recorded in cow and sheep skins later became important historical materials for studying Yi culture. 🧵 The silver jewelry making craftsmanship of Butuo amazed me! In the old silversmith shop in the county, Ji Ke Apu, who is over 70 years old, told me that it takes three months to make a complete set of Yi bride silver jewelry. The most special one is the "sun pattern" silver plate, on which the twelve rays of light represent the Yi October solar calendar. Apu said that each pattern has a story, and the "butterfly pattern" commemorates the butterfly mother who led the way during the Yi migration. 🌌 The starry sky of Butuo at night is particularly bright, which reminds me of the creation legend in the Yi epic "Leo Teyi": Zhige Along used copper pillars to support the sky and the earth, and fixed the stars with gold and silver nails. Now the observatory in Butuo can still see the strange sight of the Big Dipper being called "Seven Sisters" by the Yi people. If you want to choose a county closest to the starry sky, it must be Butuo. In Butuo, time seems to be stretched very long by the sound of the Yi people's moon guitar. Every folk song here is an epic, every silver ornament is a history book, and every torch is a starlight that has been passed down for thousands of years. #Origin of Torch Festival #Yi Silver Jewelry #Hometown of Mouth Harp #Secret of Liangshan #Intangible Cultural Heritage
