Among them, it said: "The white week is also flooding, and you can't sleep. If there are hidden concerns. Only I don't have a culvert to teach me to swim. " It can be seen that as early as the pre-Qin period, folk sightseeing activities have appeared, including: watching music, attending clubs, watching wax, watching sacrifices and so on.
