Yesterday's Baotuquan Park was crowded with people from outside to inside, which continued the enthusiasm for finding the flavor of the year during the Spring Festival. The number of tourists who come to visit and enjoy the lantern festival has reached its peak. In order to avoid congestion, the road section near Baotu Spring has also implemented a time-limited ban on motor vehicles.

At 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon, when the reporter arrived at the south gate of Baotu Spring, the lantern was already on. A large number of people have gathered around Baotu Spring, the ticket office has installed an isolation fence, and the ticket office on the east side of the south gate has lined up for more than ten meters. In Little Square, the east gate of the park, there are more people waiting in line to buy tickets. It is understood that this situation started around 5 pm. "In order to extend the tour time and avoid overcrowding in the park, the lantern was lit at 5: 30 pm, half an hour earlier than usual." The relevant person in charge of the first spring scenic spot in the world said that in addition, in order to cope with the peak passenger flow, the 16 ticket window and temporary ticket booth were temporarily added. Even so, there is a long queue in front of each ticket booth.

In addition, in order to ensure the order of the park and the safety of tourists, the park implements a large-scale single cycle of "three in and three out", and each one-way point is guarded and guided by security personnel. Although the flow of people is increasing, it is orderly.

The number of tourists exceeds 50 thousand

Tens of thousands of people will enter the park in an hour.

Because it coincides with the Lunar Year of the Pig, simple and lovely pig lanterns are essential. There are festive piggy lanterns outside the east and south gates of the scenic spot to celebrate the New Year for tourists. "I heard that there are many images of pigs in it. My son screamed and saw his favorite pig Peggy as soon as he entered the door." Ms. Zhang, a citizen, said, "I feel that this year's Lantern Festival is particularly lively, and the shape of the light group is very careful."

At 7 o'clock last night, 29,700 people poured into the scenic spot, and the number of people entering the park increased to 40,000 at 8 o'clock. According to the data provided by the first spring scenic spot in the world, as of 22: 00, ticket sales stopped, and Baotu Spring Park received 52,700 people all day. "Judging from the flow of people tonight, from 8 pm to 9 pm, the flow of people in the park is the largest." The relevant staff said, "The peak passenger flow appears at 20:30."

The crowds watching lanterns are mainly families and couples.

"Do you know" light group attracts people's attention.

A group of colorful Yuanxiao shapes near the East Gate attracted many people to stop. "Mom, look at the big dumplings!" As soon as they entered the scenic spot, the excited children were attracted by this group of lanterns called Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan. In fact, there are quite a few light groups that make people shine this year, 80% of which will move and have a sense of science and technology.

The reporter saw that the "Know or Not" light group composed of four historical celebrities, Li Qingzhao, Xin Qiji, Qin Qiong and Gan Long, located in Guanlan Pavilion, the main spring pool of Baotu Spring, attracted many citizens and tourists to stop and watch. It is reported that this group of lights uses holographic light carving technology and screen projection to show the story between them and Baotu Spring in Jinan from the perspective of historical celebrities. It is understood that the gauze curtain, as a novel projection medium, makes the image suspended in the air and produces a hazy and magical visual effect. At the same time, it is shocking to let the illusion interact with the performers and complete the performance together. "With the support of scientific and technological elements, 80% of the lanterns in this Lantern Festival will move." According to the relevant person in charge of the scenic spot, the hands, heads and eyes of many character light groups can do actions; Lanterns with animals, colored balls, waves and other elements will rise, fall or rotate.

In addition, the retrospective section of lanterns in the 40 years of reform and opening up is located near the east gate of the scenic spot. The lanterns here are based on time rings, and the Oriental Red Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Lantern Post Office and other shapes make tourists seem to have just visited and returned to the early 1980 s and 1990 s of reform and opening up.

During the tour, the reporter noticed that the crowd watching the lanterns was mainly divided into two parts, one was a family of three with children, or a couple. Compared with usual, there are more young people and fewer old people. "Because this time, free documents can't be used. Moreover, parks are sometimes crowded, and it is not very convenient for some older people to move. " Relevant personnel analyzed.

Featured cultural and creative products unveiled.

Lanterns become "explosions"

The mascots and special cultural and creative products designed and presented at the Lantern Festival for the first time this year are also favored by tourists. In the official experience store in the North Square of Wangheting Teahouse, 13 categories, more than 40 products were all unveiled, and some tourists said there were too many categories. According to reports, lanterns are the most popular among tourists, each 15 yuan.

It is understood that the Baotu Spring Lantern Festival will last until February 24th (the 20th day of the first month). During the Lantern Festival, free coupons will be stopped at a certain time. "According to previous years' experience, there are fewer people watching the lights in the last week, and the sightseeing environment is more comfortable. It is a good time to watch the lights at the wrong time and peak." The relevant staff of the scenic spot said.

13 Jinan traditional dances. Have you seen them once?

Mao die Fu Gui

Promote the inheritance of old and new

Peony is in full bloom, butterflies are flying, mice steal food, and kittens catch thieves ... At the scene of traditional dance performances, cats and butterflies brought by Dikouzhuang community in tianqiao district are very busy. "'Cat Butterfly' is the homonym of' octogenarian', which symbolizes longevity and wealth; Peony symbolizes wealth and good fortune; The free flying of butterflies symbolizes social harmony and family harmony; The appearance of mice also shows that the grain is abundant, and the meaning of cats and butterflies is very auspicious. " Introduction of Ma Yuting, a provincial non-genetic inheritor.

There are more than 30 performing teams of cats and butterflies, including the elderly and dancers, and children who play cats and mice. Especially in order to better complete the performance of cats and butterflies, they all received martial arts training. "In the performance, there will be some scenes where cats and mice fight with each other. Actors need to jump up and down from the table and need certain martial arts skills. " Ma Yuting told reporters that these young actors were selected from local martial arts classes for training, and they would bring cats and butterflies into the campus every Monday to teach children to perform.

Based on the characteristics of large action range and strong martial arts, the actors who perform cats and butterflies change frequently. "The oldest actor in our team is 67 years old. In addition to these old actors, we are training new people every year, bringing the old and the new, and passing on our characteristic dances from generation to generation in the relay race. "

Four crab lights

Lanterns are worn on people.

During the Lantern Festival, people have the custom of hanging lanterns. In yesterday's traditional dance performance, small actors from Dikouzhuang community in tianqiao district hung lanterns on their bodies and performed a four-crab lantern that could run and climb.

In fact, there is no "crab" in the four crab lanterns, which refers to four kinds of aquatic animals: fish, turtle, shrimp and clam. In the performance, use the corresponding lights to show the scene of their struggle. Ma Yuting told reporters that he chose four other animals because the posture of crabs was difficult to show. The formation of Four Crabs Lantern Dance is also related to the special geographical environment of Dikouzhuang. "The place where the Dikouzhuang community is located used to be low-lying. In the early years, people here made a living by fishing, and simulated the plot of fishing in their leisure time and entertained themselves. "

In the process of 100, the performance of the four-crab lamp is also constantly developing and innovating. "At first, the bamboo pole was only used as a prop, and then gradually increased the plot and props, and finally developed into the current four crab lights." Ma Yuting said that there are more fighting scenes between mussels and turtles than before.

Zhangqiu dry boat

You can row without water.

Yesterday's scene, the villagers of Zhangqiu Liugou dry boat performance team arrived at the scene early in the morning. Show the characteristics of the village: dry boats and donkeys. Zhangqiu dry boat has a long history and exquisite production, and it is an art form deeply loved by the masses in folk drama. Through the inheritance and innovation of folk artists, a folk art form with regional characteristics has been formed. In Liugou Village, Zhangqiu dry boat performance has been passed down for more than 30 years.

Zhangqiu dry boat is performed by actors dressed in various roles. The boatman is in the boat, and the rower is standing outside the boat with paddles or bamboo poles. The surface of the ship has artificial legs and feet. Put a pair of colored trousers on the leg, and tie the waist of the colored trousers to the performer's belt with a rope. Wear boots or cloth shoes on prosthetic feet according to the identity of the person. From the outside, the characters are as lifelike as sitting on a boat. The sides of the boat are tied with string, which is put on the shoulders of the boatman or tied around his waist. The weight of the boat falls on the shoulders or waist to reduce the burden on both hands.

At the scene, two boatmen began to set sail and anchor. With the strong supporting action, the dry boat began to perform routines such as zigzag running, diamond running and five flowers turning, which looked like a boat sailing on water. "In Zhangqiu, dry boating is an indispensable way to play in the New Year, and it is usually performed with donkeys, but in contrast, donkeys have more routines and are more flexible." Wang Shaopeng, director of Liugou Village Committee, introduced.

Luohe core

Add characteristic elements to classic works

What happens when children step on the core dressed as classic figures such as White Snake and Mu Guiying? Yesterday, the actors of Zhangqiu Luohe Cliff Core Performance Team brought a wonderful performance.

Zhangqiu core has been circulated for more than 300 years. Its original inspiration comes from the rocking sedan chair, where boys and girls dress up as mythical gods and dance on a tied platform or square table. Because the platform looks like a wick, it is also called the core. Later it gradually evolved into a form of cultural entertainment.

In fact, there are also manifestations of the core in Zhoucun and other places in Shandong Province. In contrast, the core also presents different local characteristics in the process of evolution. "Our performance here is to carry a core, that is, one person carries a core with a child on it; In other places, core lifting is often used, that is, two people carry a core. " The mayor of Luoheya Village introduced.

Zhangqiuxin's performances are mostly based on drama plots and fairy tales, and he often performs classic storylines, such as butterfly lovers, Mu Zaijun, and Legend of the White Snake. It is worth mentioning that in recent years, in order to better inherit the dance of core and show the characteristics of Zhangqiu, Zhangqiu core has evolved into a new form. "In recent years, in combination with the local characteristics of Zhangqiu, we have made some decorations showing Zhangqiu green onions and Zhangqiu black pottery, and put them on the core to show Zhangqiu characteristics."

The weight of the core itself and the weight of the child fall on the actor, and the balance of strength and mastery of skills pose challenges to the actor himself. Facing the reality that the actors are older, Hou also has a new idea. "In the next step, we will increase the teaching and training of young people so that they can pass on the core of Zhangqiu."
