Quanzhou Xiangshan Temple 450-word composition

Folk artists from all walks of life regard the temple fair as a platform to show their talents, and they are unique in paper-cutting and carving; Storytelling is eloquent; The southern accent and northern accent of singing opera; The lion and dragon dances and all kinds of juggling in the mountain fire are shocking ... wishing, wishing, making money, taming birds, watching the scenery and enjoying the ancient culture of Xiangshan are all kinds. At most, there are 50,000 to 60,000 pilgrims. It is said that temple fairs gradually declined in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it was not until Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty personally inscribed the imperial book "Giving Time and Printing" on the stone wall behind the temple that Xiangshan incense flourished again. During this period, the incense of Xiangshan Temple continued, and the temple fair resumed at this time, but the scene was far less grand than that of Song Dynasty. Houxiangshan Temple was repeatedly hit by wars, and the temple fair was terminated (because there is no text to test, the specific age is unknown). Monks in Xiangshan Temple only hold a bonsai on July 15th in the summer calendar to pray for rain and eliminate disasters. Because there is no fixed time for the temple fair, people choose to visit the Buddha in Xiangshan Temple on February 19, June 19 and September 19. It is said that these three days are the birthday of Guanyin's mother. She became a monk and set up a lotus platform. The host of the temple naturally designated these three days as the "Giant Buddha Activity Day". People call this religious activity "Xiangshan Temple Buddha Activity", which is also a modern Xiangshan Temple Fair.
