Huasheng**February 24th (Quan**Reporter Tang Xi, Cheng Junfeng, Correspondent Wenlan) From February 23rd to 24th, during the Nanyue Spring Festival temple fair, coinciding with the Lunar Lantern Festival, Nanyue Hengshan Scenic Area held a variety of intangible cultural heritage folk activities, and happily celebrated the Lantern Festival.

On the evening of the 23rd, the fire lantern festival that has been passed down for thousands of years in Nanyue Hengshan opened brightly. Legend has it that the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the day when the southern god Zhurong sows fire, and Nanyue Hengshan is the palace, station, and fiefdom of the god of fire Zhurong, for a long time, the local people bring lanterns or candles on the fourteenth night of the first lunar month, go to Zhurong in front of the Holy Emperor Palace, light up their own fireworks with the everlasting lantern in front of the Holy Emperor Palace, and carry out the fire lantern parade carnival, and over time it has formed the thousand-year-old folk custom of "Fire Lantern Festival".

At about 7 o'clock in the evening, from Nanyue Royal Street to Tianzi Mountain Fire Cultural Park, the dragon and lion team, the temple fair street line, the lantern team, the golden boy and jade girl lantern team and other parade teams are mighty, like a giant dragon winding in the ancient town. Despite the fact that the outside temperature was minus 3 degrees Celsius that night, the enthusiasm of the people was not affected in the slightest. Residents who arrived early in the morning stood on the side of the road, holding lotus lanterns, waiting for the procession to light the flame from the Zhurong Temple. The children carried their own lanterns and jumped along with the parade to experience the charm of this thousand-year-old folk custom.

On February 24th, the dragon and tiger leaped in Nanyue Wanshou Square, and the "Nine Dragons Dynasty Zhurong Holy Flame Shines China" Intangible Cultural Heritage Dragon Dance Contest was held.

At the event site, 9 intangible cultural heritage dragon teams, including Nanyue Shoulong Team, Chengbu Hanging Dragon Team, Hengnan Qiqiao Dragon Team, Changning Chicken Feather Dragon Team, and Hengshan Bailong Team, took turns to fight. The drums are rushing, the gongs are sonorous, and the "dragons" are chasing the "dragon balls" up and down, sometimes like clouds and fog, sometimes like turning over rivers and seas, sometimes galloping like flying, winning the applause of the audience.
