What is the most famous festival in Maoming ...! ? Come on, everybody, 3Q.

If you ask Maoming people, which festival is the most lively in Maoming? The answer is yes-years. If you ask a foreigner, many people will be surprised. "year" Where did it come from? Never heard of it! Indeed, this is a unique year for Maoming. In China, there is no precedent except Maoming and nearby Zhanjiang. Moreover, the annual example of Zhanjiang can't be compared with that of Maoming. There is no popularity of Maoming, and there is no excitement and grandeur of Maoming. Therefore, it can be said that the calendar year is a unique folk festival in Maoming, which gradually developed into a unique calendar year culture in Maoming. After the Spring Festival, Maoming's annual leave began one after another. What is "year"? It can be explained that there is a case every year, and the proverb is also called "meal period". The "New Year Festival" is definitely the biggest festival in rural areas of our city, and it is much more lively and grand than the Chinese New Year. Tracing back to the history of "Nianshi" is actually a comprehensive festival such as Lantern Festival, Temple Fair and Friendship Association, or the anniversary of ancestors' migration. It is also said that the "year" comes from the "Lantern Festival". As a traditional festival in China, it refers to the 15th day of the first lunar month. There is a custom of watching lanterns on this night. "Thousands of trees bloom in the east wind at night" describes the scene of enjoying lanterns in the Lantern Festival, so the Lantern Festival is also called Lantern Festival or Shangyuan Festival. Perhaps it was the creation of Maoming people that staggered the holiday time and became a "new year's case" based on eating and drinking. It is understood that the "Chronicle of Ming and Qing Dynasties" has been recorded in the local chronicles of our city. It was popular from the early years of the Republic of China to the early days of liberation, and it was once interrupted, and it has gradually recovered since the 1980s. At present, most of the cities, counties (districts) and villages under our jurisdiction are popular with "chronicles", and they are very grand and lively. The "earliest bamboos, the latest love house" in our city started from the second day of junior high school and lasted until the end of February. There is a saying in Maonan District-"The earliest bamboo is the latest Ai Wu", which means that Huang Zhu Village in Gaoshan Town celebrates the year on the seventh day of the first month, while Ai Wu in Guangong Town celebrates the year on February 28th of the lunar calendar. The dates of the villages are staggered to facilitate the gathering of relatives and friends. Before the reform and opening up, rural people did not make the annual regulations as lively and grand as they are now. At that time, the production team collected the fish pond and killed a few pigs. The members took back a few pounds of fish and meat and killed a chicken to cook. It was a feast. After the reform and opening up, people's living standards have improved, and the formulation of annual regulations has become more and more solemn and lively. At present, people usually put three or five tables; Rich people set a dozen or twenty tables. Eating is not just chicken, duck and fish, but "flying in the sky and swimming in the sea", and there are all kinds of delicious food. Whoever has more guests, who has a high level of guests, and who has more cars parked at the door, the greater the face of the owner. So not only relatives and friends can come to visit the New Year, but also relatives and friends of relatives can come. For farmers who have worked hard for a year, it is also a very pleasant thing to meet relatives and friends, get together and exchange information. Generally, there are three years, the first day is called "the beginning of the year", the second day is called "perennial" and the last day is called "the end of the year". From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, there are always eating, drinking and a series of traditional rural activities. Every household uses chicken, pork and fish to make a pair of "three beasts" for the "Bodhisattva" to enjoy. This is called "loyalty". After that, firecrackers were set off, accompanied by gongs and drums, and the scene was spectacular. In particular, the Bodhisattva patrolled the door, the procession was long, the colorful flags were fluttering, the gongs and drums were loud, and firecrackers were ringing, which was magnificent. During the New Year, there are lantern shows, puppet shows, movies, floating color performances, fireworks, and even warrior competitions, lion dances or Cantonese operas. It can be said that each village has its own magical powers, and the programs are so rich that people can't see anything. Therefore, after the Spring Festival, "eating new year's goods" has become the most popular phrase in Maoming. For Maoming people, it is the most important to make a "annual plan". People who work and live outside may not necessarily go home during the New Year, but they will definitely come back for reunion during the "annual regulations". Many Maoming people in other places can't go home for the New Year because of business delays. Before the arrival of the new year, they will definitely give up all work and entertainment and go home on time to reunite with their families, relatives and friends. Speaking the same language, the local accent and nostalgia blend and the atmosphere is warm, which really makes the hometown people who have been away all the year round and rarely meet each other enjoy it. The "eccentricity" of the annual regulations has attracted the attention of experts. Nowadays, Maoming's rural areas are engaged in "annual regulations", which not only retains some traditional programs, but also endows them with new era content. On the annual festival, archways are set up in every village and alley, colorful flags are flying along the road, and every household is decorated with lanterns and feasts for relatives and friends. People from neighboring villages come to watch the fun, even strangers are guests. The host will warmly welcome tea and rice. And showing movies, performing dramas, giving concerts and other healthy and progressive programs are increasingly becoming people's new choices. During the "Year" every year, nearly 100 Cantonese opera troupes in Guangdong and Guangxi are active in various villages in western Guangdong. For example, almost every year, provincial first-class troupes are invited to perform, and even some big-name stars come on stage to entertain. On the 19th day of the first month, the streets were crowded with people and the performances were colorful. Residents around the head and the tail competed to sing, and the parade played up the atmosphere. Tens of thousands of people are fascinated and linger. Nowadays, Maoming's "Nianshi" attracts more and more people at home and abroad with its unique local characteristics and traditional "strangeness", and some folk experts and scholars also have a strong interest in it. To this end, some travel agencies in Guangzhou have specially launched tourist routes to Maoming to experience the culture and atmosphere of that year. Maoming is surrounded by mountains and seas and is rich in tourism resources. Coupled with the unique "Year" customs and festivals, its characteristic tourism with cultural connotation will have broad prospects. The traditional "year example" is usually in the first month and February of the lunar calendar. Now it may be that after the reform and opening up, great changes have taken place in the rural areas of our city, and the living standards of farmers have been continuously improved. Many villages in our city have two "annual" periods in a year, that is, the second year: autumn season. The year of autumn festival is mostly from March to November in the lunar calendar, which varies from village to village. For example, in Lu Cun, Shan Ge Town, Maonan District, the seventeenth day of the first month is over, and March 27th is the autumn festival of the year, which is called "Che Gong Birthday" by the villagers, and it is also very lively and grand. However, in recent years, some autumn festivals are more lively than traditional festivals. The reason is that the orthodox chronology is generally too concentrated, which makes people overwhelmed and unable to explore the chronology one by one. Autumn holidays are mostly in the off-season and not concentrated. In addition, it costs less to turn over the autumn festival, such as doing a big drama. During the orthodox festival, it costs several thousand yuan a night, but when it costs more than two thousand yuan, you can find a famous Cantonese opera troupe to perform.
