Zhejiang?

The activity of sending a "summer boat" in summer has a history of hundreds of years in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province.

The "Summer Boat" was completely built according to the scale of the old three-masted sailboat, which contained various sacrifices. After the activity began, more than 50 fishermen took turns to carry the "Summer Boat" to the streets, drums were blaring, firecrackers were ringing, and people were praying all over the street. The "Summer Boat" was finally transported to the dock for a series of blessing ceremonies. Subsequently, this "summer boat" was dragged out of the fishing port by fishing boats, and then lit on the sea to let it rise and fall, in order to wish people a bumper harvest and a healthy life.

Taizhou

People in Jiaojiang, Taizhou also have the custom of eating ginger juice to adjust eggs in summer. Ginger juice can eliminate moisture in the body, and ginger juice can adjust eggs and "replenish people". Some elderly people like to eat chicken porridge, which is said to tonify yang. ?

Putian?

On the Great Summer Festival, Putian people have the custom of eating litchi, mutton and rice grains, which is called "over the Great Summer". In summer, relatives and friends often give litchi and mutton as gifts. ?

Taiwan Province province?

During the Summer Festival, most of the waters around Taiwan Province Province are warm-water fish, with squid in the northeast and snapper in the outer seas of Keelung, Chizong and Changhua. Taiwan Province Province folk proverb: Eat pineapple in summer, saying that pineapple is the best in this season. In addition, June 15 is a "semi-annual festival". Because June 15 of the lunar calendar is half of the whole year, the whole family will eat the "half-year round" together after worshipping God on this day. Half-year rings are made by grinding glutinous rice into powder and rubbing it with red noodles. Most of them will be cooked into sweets to taste, symbolizing reunion and sweetness. ?
