National custom

Yao style

Yao nationality is a minority with a long history in China. The ancestors of Yao compatriots in Liannan migrated from Hunan, lived in Lingjunshan area and had little contact with the outside world. Up to now, ancient and unique customs are still preserved, among which singing folk songs to fall in love and "playing songs in class" on October 16 of the lunar calendar have the most national characteristics. "Playing the Song Hall" is a traditional festival of Yao nationality. Every year on October 16th of the lunar calendar, Yao compatriots, men, women and children, dressed in costumes, gather in the temple in our village, singing and dancing to pay homage to the ancestor of the Yao nationality, King Pangu. After thousands of years of deduction by the Yao people in Liannan, this activity was listed in the first batch of intangible cultural heritage list of the country in May last year. The bonfire party attended by the members in Qingyuan is the epitome of their traditional festivals. Everyone can sing and dance with the Yao family "Sha Yaomei" and "Ya Gui".
