Poetry about Weifang kites

1. Poems describing kite flying

Poems describing kite flying first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Yuan Zhen wrote in his poem "Twenty Chapters on Birds" :

"There are birds and flocks of paper kites, which are held by a boy because of the wind. As the ground gets higher and higher, people's eyes are dazzled, and everyone thinks that you have all the feathers.

The wind breaks the rope and the boy walks away. , The remaining power is still in the sky. Once you return to the earth, who will pity you again if you fall into the deep mud?"

It is meaningful to use things to satirize people.

Kou Zhun, the famous prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, once wrote the poem "Paper Kite":

"The blue autumn is quiet, and the power of flying is still weak.

The breeze is like a trustworthy one, and finally ***Bai Yunfei."

The Southern Song Dynasty poet Lu You described the paper kite in a very vivid and interesting way:

"The bamboo horse staggered towards the river, and the paper kite carried the wind. " < /p>

Xu Wei, a famous poet and painter in the Ming Dynasty, wrote 25 "Poems on Wind Kites", the most representative of which is:

"The paper kites in the north of the Yangtze River and the south of the Yangtze River are all in harmony, with long lines and short lines." Back to the high and low.

The spring breeze has no evidence since ancient times, and a group of riders played the flute."

It describes the lively scene of kite flying in the Jiangnan area at that time.

Another song

"I also used to put paper and play, but I am not like this now."

How can I stop and watch the spring horses? When Children Are Disconnected ”

Thought-provoking after reading.

Qing Dynasty poet Gao Ding's poem "Village Residence":

"The grass grows and the orioles fly in the February sky, and the willows brush the embankments and are drunk with the spring smoke.

Children's Powder I came back early from school and took advantage of the east wind to fly the kite."

It is also a popular description of kite flying.

Kong Shangren also wrote a poem about children flying kites:

"With children in red pleats, they carry clues to curse God:

Everyone praises you for the early arrival of spring. , I owe my kite the five-foot-long wind." The image of an innocent and lively child comes to life on the page.

Zheng Banqiao, one of the "Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou", once served as the county magistrate of Weixian County. He sang in the poem "Huai Wei County":

"Paper flowers are flying all over the sky like snow, delicate The women's swings are all around.

The five-color skirts are swaying in the wind, so that the butterflies will return in spring. It wrote:

"One hundred and four days of light cold food, Yeyou strives to go up the Bailang River.

There are more paper ducks, sons and daughters on the swing, than the new spring swallows."

These two poems record in detail the lively scene of kite flying in Weifang in the Qing Dynasty.

In the Qing Dynasty, there were two female poets who wrote poems about broken kites, which have unique taste and artistic conception. One is Chen Changsheng's "Spring Letters":

"Countless soft reds have been turned into mud, and the spring greens are beginning to appear in front of the court.

Parrots are suddenly speaking outside the window, and kites are blowing down paintings. "On the west side of the eaves."

Another song is Luo Qilan's "Spring Boudoir":

"When the weather is cold in spring and the weather turns sunny, the sun's shadows move behind the screen window when I sleep.

Where did the kite break its string? It fell on the apricot branch. "It's an interesting and thought-provoking poem.

In "A Dream of Red Mansions", Cao Xueqin also made a lantern riddle using a broken kite as the answer:

"Children at the bottom of the stairs look up, and the Qingming Festival is the most suitable decoration.

< p> Once the hairspring is broken, it is powerless. Don’t blame the east wind for leaving. "This is an amazing riddle.

The contemporary Zhou Zuoren wrote in "Children's Miscellaneous Poems":

"The catfish floats in the middle of the day, and the butterflies fly up into the blue sky.

Flying harriers You must be prepared for changes in the weather, and don't be caught in the wind." It is said from experience that the most fearful thing about flying a kite is the uncertain wind direction.

The modern song "March 3rd":

"It's March 3rd again, and kites are flying all over the sky, carrying my thoughts and dreams, walking back to Childhood; I remember that on March 3rd of that year, I couldn't close my eyes all night, looking at the kite painted in the corner, and before dawn dawned; I woke up my friends in the village, went to the edge of the village together, hugged the kite with the bird painted on it, everyone laughed. Open your face; grab a handful of soil to test the wind, let go of the long string, and the kite will accompany the white clouds with its innocent laughter.

There is also a modern poem:

The spring breeze in March / holds up your wings / the blue sky / makes your dreams come true /

Free bird/You are no longer envious/You have your own pursuits and yearnings/

Fly to the blue sky/Fight the wind and clouds/Overlook the red flowers and green grass/Be attached to the charming spring scenery/

Your destiny/Although it is in the hands of others/You still fight hard/Never give in/

In your bright eyes/There is only longing and desire for life/There is no trace of depression or sadness/

The clear sky/shows your grace/the stormy days/accommodates your reverie/

You never worry about your future/never worry about your own Idea of ??destination/

You know how to let people’s wishes fly/letting yourself fly/is letting their hopes fly/

As long as the people who love life are happy/you will always soar in the blue sky/

Not afraid of the wind and rain attacking the thin bones/not afraid of the thread being broken and losing the direction/

Smiling up to the sky/flying their dreams 2. Prose about Weifang kites,

Sorry, there are too few such materials. There are many essays about kites. It is recommended to refer to them more!

April 2, 1984, the first Weifang session. The International Kite Festival was held in Shandong. On this day, people came from the western half of the world and from both ends of the world. They said they came to visit the hometown of kites with a sense of pilgrimage.

This is a joyful visit. A grand gathering of beauty and friendship. Many gray-haired old people are also bathing in the innocence of childhood, throwing their creations, yearnings, and love into the sky. The most spectacular thing is the afternoon after the opening. On the Bailang River Reservoir Dam 50 miles away from Weifang City, you can see a black "mountain of people" stretching for 800 meters from a distance. On the opposite side, across the dry river bed, is another "sea of ??people" with an estimated 100,000 people. More than 100 people.

They came here early from dozens of miles away and sat down. There were bright red, green, and yellow dots among the group of men in black and blue clothing, which was like a carpet. The flowers are of course the rural women and children in costumes.

There are no tickets or crowds at the stadium, there is no host's podium and loudspeakers, and no one is shouting. This is not allowed, but the square of 100,000 people is in order... In the blue sky, colorful kites from home and abroad are flying in a silent competition.

As early as the Warring States Period more than 2,000 years ago, "wooden kites" (wooden kites) appeared. After the wooden ones, there were paper kites, called "paper kites", and by the Five Dynasties, kites appeared. < /p>

According to "Xuncu Lu": "Kite is a paper kite, also known as a wind kite. Li Ye of the Five Dynasties made paper kites in the palace and used strings to ride on the wind to make plays.

Later, a bamboo was used as a flute on the head of the kite, and the wind blew into the bamboo, making the sound like a kite, hence the name kite. "It can be seen that the name of the kite is due to the sound device on it, which makes the sound like a kite, which is pleasant to the ear.

It can also be seen that the craftsmanship is becoming more and more skillful. Kites were once tools of war. .

In ancient times, kite flying was not only a game, it also had a special meaning of "flying bad luck". Chapter 70 of "Dream of Red Mansions" describes that Zhongfang and Bao Erye in the Grand View Garden suddenly wrote a poem on catkins outside the window. There was a big butterfly kite hanging on the top of the bamboo. When Daiyu asked the girl to send it away, she said, "But if you know who is doing bad luck, just drop it out quickly."

Take out ours and we will lose our luck. "As soon as Jing Daiyu said this, the girls took out their kites and flew them.

This is of course a kind of superstition, but it also shows that people do not want bad luck but prefer good luck. The poem "Kite" by Gao Pian, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, has been around for a long time: The sound of strings echoes in the still night in the blue sky, and the palace merchants trust the passing wind.

It is vaguely like a tune that can be heard, and the wind blows it to a different tune. Zheng Banqiao also wrote a poem on kites: Paper flowers are flying all over the sky like snow, and the charming girl is swinging around.

The five-color skirt is swinging in the wind, so that the butterflies will return in spring. Xu Wei in the Ming Dynasty once wrote "Poetry on Kite Painting". : The wicker threads are rolled into cotton, and Qianxun is able to fly the paper kite.

How much force the spring breeze can take away, to bring the children to the sky. Deng Tuo once wrote a poem called "Kite": The kite flies and the butterfly dances happily. Graceful, far and near, you can follow your heart.

In such a time, the spring breeze will send you to the sky. More than 60 years ago, Mr. Lu Xun wrote the famous prose "Kite".

Kite is the messenger of spring and the favorite plaything of children: "My little brother, he was about 10 years old at that time. He was sick and very thin. However, he loved kites the most. He couldn't afford one, so I couldn't afford it. He was not allowed to let go, so he had to open his mouth and stare blankly into the sky, sometimes for half a day. The crab kite in the distance suddenly fell down, and he exclaimed. The two tile kites were untied, and he jumped with joy. "

However, because "I" believed that flying kites was "worthless", I actually broke and flattened a butterfly kite my brother had tied, and committed a stupid act of "mental torture".

Today, kites in many countries are using the knowledge of fluid mechanics and new materials and technologies to set new records.

As friends from New Zealand introduced at the symposium, they have developed strong plastic tubes and paper, which are light and strong when used in kites. They can send kites as big as houses into the sky without Category 8 winds. I also saw a video introduction from the United States. They also tried to "deliver food" along the kite string, but it was not a painting of Chang'e, but a living athlete.

As the Weifang International Kite Festival has been held year after year, the kites in this place have become famous all over the world. At the 1988 International Kite Festival, Weifang was praised by celebrities in the kite industry from the United States, Japan, the Netherlands, Italy and other countries. It was elected as the International Kite Capital and preparations were started to establish the International Kite Federation. According to reports, this is the first international sports organization initiated, organized and headquartered in China.

It was one afternoon last spring when the kite came out. It has been dormant for a year, and the kite's heart is light and fluttery.

Kite remembered the bird with beautiful feathers that passed him by when he came out for the last time. Why do you still think of her? How strange.

Kite said to himself. A gust of wind came towards me, the string tightened around my body, and the kite floated confidently.

Yes, Xian always said that kites are the best. They can drag me, a clumsy person, into the sky easily. The sky is so blue that it is easy to imagine, and the white clouds roll lazily.

The protagonist is the kite. The kite thought of the little bird that passed by him again, "She is so free and so beautiful."

It seems that those things that are so close to her that she is not sure of, Always make it easy for yourself to think of. The kite couldn't help but think about the little bird with snow-white feathers, longing for a beautiful encounter on this spring afternoon, even though she didn't even know her name.

If I could fly freely, I would definitely find that little bird and be with her. The bird flies from the distant sky, elegantly, like a beautiful princess.

The kite stared blankly, trying to get closer so that the bird could see it, but the kite flew too high, and it was difficult to move the string, so the bird finally flew far away. The kite was very angry. He looked at the thread that had been attached to him for many years and saw that the thread looked so old and vulgar. "You are so annoying. Without you, I would be very free and I could chase my favorite bird." < /p>

The line is silent. The spring breeze gets warmer day by day, blowing on the kite's shoulders, and my heart feels itchy.

The kite looked flawlessly at the green grass and the running children, not even bothering to glance at the thread. Just staring at the empty sky, looking forward to the approach of the bird.

Bird. 3. An essay describing the kites in Weifang

Kites, also known as "paper kites" in ancient times, are also known as "kites". They are a toy popular throughout Shandong, especially in Weifang. The origin of Weifang kites can be traced back It has a history of more than 2,000 years when Mo Zhai made the first "wooden kite" when Da Si imagined Mo Zhai in the state of Lu, but it really started to flourish and become popular among the people in the Ming Dynasty.

By the middle of the Qing Dynasty, folk artists specializing in kite making began to appear in Weifang. According to legend, there was a mute artist named Chen who made a novel and beautiful kite and flew it high and steadily, which made him famous far and wide.

At this time, competing to fly kites around the Qingming Festival has become a local spring outing custom. According to the "Weixian Chronicles": "Every time there is a cold meal in this town, outside the east gate, on the beach... there is a Banqiao, the river is first flushing, peaches and plums are spitting out, willows are filled with smoke, and paper kites are flying high into the clouds."

"On the Qingming Festival, the children made plays with paper kites and swings. The kites were made in different ways, and they were also used as various characters besides cranes, swallows, butterflies, and cicadas. They were all lifelike and full of ingenuity," Zeng wrote Seven years ago, Zheng Banqiao, the great poet and calligrapher and magistrate of Weixian County, once wrote this poem to commemorate Weixian County: "Paper flowers are flying all over the sky like snow, charming girls are swinging around, and five-color skirts are swinging in the wind, so as to bring the butterflies back in spring. ", vividly describes the characteristics of Weixian kites and the custom of kite flying. "One hundred and four days of Xiaohanshi, I walked up the Bailang River, my son and daughter were swinging with paper kites, and there were many spring swallows in the new arrival of grass." This is the true description of the poet Guo Lin of Weixian County about flying kites during the Qingming Festival in his hometown.

In modern times, Weixian County has become a well-known kite production place and market at home and abroad. There is a poem "Zhuzhi Ci" describing the grand scene of the kite market at that time: "The kite market is on the east city wall, and tourists come and go to buy and choose. Busy, he renovated to attract customers, and the kites flew across the ocean, and were taken to the United States and Japan to be collected as art treasures.

After the founding of New China, Weifang kites, as a symbol of Weifang City, have been cherished and valued by the local people. Since 1984, Weifang City has successfully held the International Kite Festival continuously; in 1988, Weifang City was selected as the "World Kite Capital" by the domestic and foreign kite circles.

Weifang kites went global and truly reached their heyday. Personality is the hallmark of artistic success.

The unique personality of Weifang kites is embodied through the four skills of "tying, painting, pasting and flying". The frame of a Weifang kite is generally made of bamboo. The procedures for tying the frame include: selecting bamboo, breaking bamboo, cutting bamboo strips (there are methods of "drawing and cutting" and "pushing"), repairing bamboo strips, bending bamboo strips, and tying. Knot bamboo strips etc.

There are many kinds of kite stands, and each of them has its own merits. Generally speaking, after mastering the basic ways of tying hard-wing kites, soft-wing kites and racquet kite stands, you can freely change and build various kites. The senior artists summed up their experience in making kites and some even made them into songs.

For example, the formula for tying a fat sand swallow with hard wings is: the latest four-four method for fat swallow, one head, one belly and one tail root. - The bottom strip is straight and must be hard, and the lower strip is flat and soft, conforming to the shape.

The frame should be divided into seven equal parts, the two arms should be tied in a semicircle, the middle abdomen should be divided into two parts, and the middle line of the upper end of the tail bamboo should be found. How to determine the length of the lower end? Set up a thousand horizontal shelves at the beginning and the end. There are four square pieces in the middle of the support paper, and the four arms on each side must be paved to each other.

The head is facing the wind and the belly is the main one. The Mianzhu should be soft and easy to relieve the wind. The crotch fat paper is wide and soft on one side, so it will not move around in the wind.

Paste: The paper used to paste the kite, alum silk, thin silk, etc. can be determined according to the shape of the kite. For example, silk is used to paste a dragonfly kite because silk is more transparent than paper and more like the wings of a living dragonfly. Silk is used to paste the tail of a dragon herring, which shakes in the wind like a fish tail when flying. Silk cannot be used to paste an eagle because silk If it shakes in the wind, it won't look like an eagle flying in the sky. It must be made of leather paper or framed windproof paper.

When pasting the kite, first cut the paper against the frame. The paper is larger than the frame. Cut some slits on the edges. After applying glue on the edges, paste the cut edges on the paper strips in turn. There are two methods of pasting; one is to paste the paper package on the four sides of the bamboo strip, this method is called "bianbinger"; the other is to paste the paper package on the two sides of the bamboo strip and wait for the paste to dry. After that, use a knife to cut off the excess paper. This method is called "edging".

This method is to expose part of the shaved bamboo strips to show the artist's production skills. The kite can be pasted first and then painted, or painted first and then pasted.

Because the painted patterns of kites are mostly symmetrical, in order to make the patterns symmetrical and consistent, artists usually paint them first and then paste them. First cut each part of the paper, paint it, dry it in the shade, iron it, and then paste it on the shelf.

When painting, do not paint the pattern with gold at the joints of each part, leaving some blank space. After the paste is done, fill in the patterns at the joints neatly. The specific methods of gluing various kites are also different. For example, for Shayan kites, the arms are glued first, and then the legs.

The head and abdomen are pasted last. For rice-shaped kites, the arms are pasted first. For beat kites, paper is pasted using the flat method, etc. The composition and coloring of painted kites best reflect local characteristics.

Weifang’s kites absorb the techniques of Weixian’s woodblock New Year paintings, as well as the kites painted in Beijing and Tianjin. The lines are rough and the colors are based on red, yellow and blue, with heavy strokes and thick strokes. The colors are bright and simple, and the symmetry achieves a strong and beautiful perspective effect. For example, the dragon-headed centipede kite in Weifang, the shape of the Hu Jingzhu School is mainly ultramarine, so it uses rich colors, which has a strong visual contrast; the Kangwanxiang School mainly uses Pulan, which represents the sea water, and at the same time uses warm colors of red or orange to make the whole picture vivid. Bright, after the kite takes flight, it creates a harmonious and distinct perspective effect with the blue sky.

A Western art master once said: "You must know how to use the fewest colors. If you should use seven colors and you use two to express it, then your ability will be greater." A kite artist from Weifang This is exactly what was done with the composition and painting of the kite.

They use as few colors as possible and mainly use block colors, which very clearly highlights the simple and rich characteristics of folk art. The kite flying tools include strings, winding tools and various add-ons for the game.

The threads used for flying kites include "sewing thread" (suitable for flying small kites), "small thread" (three-strand cotton thread, the most commonly used kite thread among the people), and "clothing thread" (real silk thread, thin (called "silk thread", thick ones are called "silk rope"), "hemp thread" (in the past, folk used this thread to enlarge kites), etc. The most common winding tool is the "thread string", which is threaded on the shaft. The hexagonal spool on the spool can be rotated freely to pay off the line. When taking up the thread, you can pull the thread with one hand and spin the wheel with the other hand, which is very convenient and looks exquisite and cute. It is a lovely toy in itself; there is also a "simple stick" with a flat frame on the shaft handle, which is easy to use. Very convenient.

If you want to enlarge the kite, you need to use a "line crutch" to fly it. 4. Poems about flying kites

Poems about flying kites:

1. "Kite" Tang Dynasty - Gao Pian

The sound of strings rings in the blue sky at night, and the palace Businessmen trust the wind of communication. It's vaguely like a piece of music that's worth listening to, but the wind blows it into a different tune.

The sound made by the kite has the beauty of music, like a string of flowing notes ringing in the ears. When a gust of wind blows, the kite blows another tune. Savor it carefully, like the sound of silk and bamboo lingering in your ears. , making people realize the infinite grace of kite music.

2. "Watching Village Children Playing on the Stream" Lu You, Song Dynasty

After the rain, the stream water swept over the embankment and was leisurely watching the village children Xie Wanqing. Bamboo horses rush through the water, while paper kites stalk the wind.

In the third winter, he temporarily studied Confucianism, while Qianqiu still worked as a farmer for his father. If you are illiterate enough to be able to pay for taxes and servitude, you don't need to work hard to admire the high officials.

The first two couplets of the poem describe two games, one is riding a bamboo horse; the other is flying a kite. The bamboo horse ran on the ground, wandering around, and the "horse" rushed into the muddy pond, which was very disappointing; "The paper kite dominates the wind and roars" vividly depicts the posture of the paper kite, as well as the child's innocence and cuteness. A state of joy and ease.

5. The origin of Weifang kites

A brief history of Chinese kites: Kites are the oldest folk art and leisure activity in my country.

When it comes to flying kites, not only children are excited, but even adults are excited and eager to try it. The fun of flying a kite is indeed beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The predecessor Jin Shengtan once said: "It is a joy to see someone's kite break." As for the origin of the kite, it is no longer possible to verify it.

Some folklorists believe that the ancients invented kites mainly to commemorate their worldly relatives and friends. Therefore, when the gate of ghosts is briefly opened during the Qingming Festival, they put their condolences on the kites to convey their condolences to their deceased relatives and friends. In fact, the earliest kites that appeared in my country were made of wood. In the literature, "Han Feizi" once recorded that "the philosopher Mo Zhai took three years to fly into the sky with a wooden kite.

" (approximately Around 300 BC), paper kites did not appear until Cai Lun invented paper in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Therefore, it can be inferred that Chinese kites have a history of more than two thousand years. There are also records about kites in the official history, which date earlier than the Five Dynasties. One is that Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty was besieged by Hou Jing and flew a kite to ask for help. According to the "Biography of Hou Jing" in Volume 80 of Southern History, In the third year of the Qing Dynasty (549 AD) when Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, Xiao Yan, Hou Jing rebelled, and the rebels besieged Emperor Wu in Jianye (now Nanjing), the capital of Liang Dynasty. At that time, Prince Jian Wen was outside the Taiji Hall and took advantage of the northwest wind to ask for help. Unfortunately, he was discovered and shot down by the rebels. Soon Taicheng was captured, and the Liang Dynasty also declined and perished.

This is the story of Jian Wen's unfortunate failure to fly a kite to seek help. There is still a difference between a kite and a paper kite.

The so-called "kite" means that it can make a sound like a string in the air; as for the "paper kite", it is a dumb bird that only flies but does not sing. A kite is made by tying a bowstring to the back of a paper kite or pressing a bagpipe on the head of the kite. When the paper is lifted into the air, strong winds pass through the flute or cause the bowstring to vibrate, producing a chirping sound.

Ordinary paper kites do not make any sound. During the Five Dynasties, Emperor Xuan of Qi in the Northern Dynasty also used kites to carry people for fun, and once he flew more than five miles away.

"Northern History" records that Emperor Xuan of Qi used kites to ride on the death row prisoners in the sky prison, allowing them to "fly down from the platform with mats as wings" for the entertainment of Emperor Xuan of Qi. If these prisoners on death row fulfill the emperor's wish, their crimes can be pardoned.

Li Huan of the Qing Dynasty once compiled a famous song "Kite Story", which records the story of the beautiful and ugly sisters Zhan Yan, Zhan Qiang and the kite. The two sisters wrote poems on the kites and then flew the kites down.

Later, the two men who had picked up the broken harrier came to propose marriage, and finally the two couples got married happily. This is a good story about kites.

Other evidence confirms that it was spread to Korea and then to Japan around the 10th century, and then spread to Europe in the 13th and 14th centuries. Asians are much better at making kites than Europeans.

Malaysian kites are made of moss and dry reeds. They are similar to Korean and Indian kites and are very flexible to maneuver. They can make the kite land exactly at the designated place, and some can make the kite only fifteen centimeters above the ground without the kite ever touching the ground.

Today, Taiwan’s kites have made even more progress. In the 61st year of the Republic of China, a world kite competition was held in Hawaii. The kite-making technology of the participating countries was obviously not as good as ours. This fact touched many domestic kite experts.

By the 64th year of the Republic of China, Taiwanese kites had been exported to the United States, Australia, Japan and other countries, earning US$30,000 in foreign exchange a year. Taiwan has entered the industrial age and everything is about speed and efficiency. No matter whether the kites are sold on the market or exported, paper products are no longer seen. The cheap ones are made of plastic, and the more expensive ones are made of nylon cloth. Only primary and secondary school students’ craft classes are still made of paper. , because paper is more convenient and cheaper.

However, Hong Kong still produces paper kites, but the kite surfaces are no longer individually drawn but instead printed. Although it is more industrialized, it still retains its traditional characteristics and local flavor. Kite in foreign countries: Flying a kite by pulling the string into the wind is a favorite among children.

Kites have a history of two thousand years in China and come in many shapes. Mainly divided into two types: plane and three-dimensional.

After spreading to all over the world, the shapes have become more diverse and richer. The Kite Museum displays kites from nineteen countries, with strong local colors.

The Story of Kite Kite originated during the Warring States Period. Gongshu Pan is what later generations call the Seven Skilled Craftsmen Lu Ban or "Master Lu Ban".

The raw materials for the "magpie" or "kite" he made were extremely thin wood or bamboo chips. After the Han Dynasty, due to the invention and application of paper, paper was gradually used instead of wood when making kites.

Called "paper kite". In the Five Dynasties, bamboo whistles were tied to paper kites. When the wind blew the bamboo whistles, the sound was like a kite, so it was later called "kite."

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, it was very common to fly kites in various parts of Weifang. Ming and Qing Dynasties During this period, Weifang's kites reached their peak.

Every year around the Qingming Festival, when the wind is beautiful and the sun is shining, every family, old and young, goes on an outing and sends their favorite works into the blue sky.

Qing Dynasty poet Zheng Banqiao said in his poem: "Paper flowers are flying all over the sky like snow, and charming girls are swinging around.

The five-color skirts are swinging in the wind, so that the butterflies will return in spring." vividly describes the Qingming Festival in Weifang Kite scene.

This spring-filled folk activity is not only an opportunity for mutual observation and evaluation, but also a good time to breathe the early spring air, enjoy the gifts of nature, and exercise. Weifang kites are exquisitely crafted, unique in painting, novel in shape and reasonable in composition.

It also absorbs some characteristics of woodblock New Year pictures, draws on the painting skills of Beijing and Tianjin, has beautiful lines, bright colors, and is good at using exaggerated techniques to highlight the theme. The style is unique and lifelike.

The most representative large-scale dragon-headed centipede kite is more than a hundred feet long. When flying, first gradually raise the tail and body, and rely on the lifting force generated by dozens of "kidneys" to lift the head high into the sky.

The waist is tied according to the principle of mechanics, and there must be strict angles and distances between the ropes. The "dragon-headed centipede" soars into the blue sky, its momentum is thousands of miles, and it is a spectacular sight.

Winning widespread praise at home and abroad. Since the first Weifang International Kite Festival in 1984.

The annual International Kite Festival is held in mid-April every year. In 1988, the Fifth International Kite Festival designated Weifang as the "Kite Capital of the World. Now it has successfully held nineteen The Kite Festival attracts dozens of countries and regions from all over the world every year and has also made outstanding contributions to the economic development of Weifang. It is said that kites in China have a long history. General Han Xin once used kites to fly. 6. An ancient poem describing kite flying
