The "Governor-General" energetically waved a small flag to lead the way, followed by the Longmen Banner, the banner reads "Folk Flower Festival on the Wall" seven big characters, and the colorful dragon flag fluttering in the wind...... behind

On February 24th, the Lantern Festival, the annual folk flower festival in Qiangzi Road Village, Dachengzi Town, Miyun District, was staged again, and the 12 flower festivals appeared in turn, and the calm small village boiled.

The century-old wall road flower will celebrate the Lantern Festival.

This year's performance team consisted of 152 villagers and 12 programs from Qiangzilu Village and neighboring villages. The magnificent dragon and lion dance, the vigorous and enthusiastic drums, the laughing trolley, and the flexible stilt ......The cheers and applause at the scene continued, and they were full of joy and excitement.

The Governor is the organizer and leader of the flower party. According to Cai Bo, the "supervisor" of the Wall Road Flower Club, the oldest performer is 79 years old, and the old man named Lu Guangsheng has participated in more than ten flower party performances and has been focusing on performances in the "noisy" team. The youngest performer was 15-year-old Lu Minghan, for whom practicing "stilts" during the winter break was as important as completing his homework. "Since the holidays, I have been rehearsing with my friends almost every day, and we have designed our own jumping movements, which is also an innovation. Lu Minghan said.

The Wall Road Flower Club has been inherited for nearly 100 years. "The composition of the 'stalls' of the flower party is not static, but with the development of the times, the way that the masses like to see is constantly 'self-growing'. Qian Lei, Propaganda Minister of Dachengzi Town, Miyun District, introduced that in the records of flower party activities in the village in the 90s of the last century, there were no two flower parties, "**" and "waist drum".

The folk flower festival on Qiangzi Road is rich in form, which is not unrelated to its historical status as an important border town. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, garrisons and merchants from Tiannan and Haibei have made this place prosperous for a while, and their descendants have settled down and lived here. This small village of more than 800 people has 46 surnames, in addition to the common surnames such as "Wang", "Zhao" and "Cai", there are also rare surnames such as "Ju", "Qu", "Rong" and "Weng". The openness and inclusiveness of this village have enabled the folk customs of all over the world to converge, integrate and develop here.

The activity lasted for more than two hours, and it was lively and lively to start the happiness and beauty of the new year.
