Fuyang Torch Festival: Fuyang Torch Festival is the Mid-Autumn Festival in Fuyang. In the evening, I lit a torch and went to my hometown to commemorate the Red Scarf Army Uprising led by Liu Futong. According to legend, Hanhe organized peasant uprisings, and they responded with their torches one after another, taking the lead in launching them in Yingzhou. There is a nursery rhyme: "The city is on fire and the government is scattered; There is no one in the city, and the red scarf sits on the bench. "

Jiuhuashan Temple Fair: Jiuhuashan Scenic Area in Chizhou City, Anhui Province is one of the national intangible cultural heritages. At the end of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty, Jin Qiaojue, a monk from Silla, crossed the ocean and came to Jiuhua Mountain to practice. After his death, he was revered by monks as the incarnation of the Tibetan Bodhisattva. Since then, every year on the 30th day of the seventh lunar month, Buddhist monks and local people have held grand sacrificial ceremonies, gradually forming the Jiuhuashan Temple Fair: Buddha's Birthday (the eighth day of the fourth lunar month), Yanzi Day (the 15th day of the seventh lunar month) and Dizang Day (the 30th day of the seventh lunar month) have successively held the "Bathing Buddha's Dharma Meeting", "Bonsai Meeting" and "Great Wishing Dharma Meeting", and on the 15th day of the tenth lunar month, there are a sea of people.
