Pingju, which spreads in the north of China, is one of the traditional operas of the Han nationality, one of the popular operas, and one of the five major operas in China. Some people think it is the second largest drama in China. In the late Qing Dynasty, it was formed on the basis of the ditty "Lotus Falls Opposite" in Luanxian County, Hebei Province. It was first popular in rural areas of Hebei province, and then entered Tangshan, and was called "Tangshan Xiazi".

5. Henan Opera

Henan Opera originated in the Central Plains (Kaifeng, Henan). It is the largest local opera in China, ranking first among local operas all over the country. Henan Opera has been continuously inherited, reformed and innovated on the basis of Henan Bangzi. It, together with Beijing Opera, Huangmei Opera, Pingju Opera and Yueju Opera, is called the five major operas in China, one of the Han operas and the largest local opera in China.

Henan Opera is famous for its sonorous singing, moderate intonation, clear articulation, mellow charm, liveliness, flesh and blood, and being good at expressing the inner feelings of characters. It is widely welcomed by people from all walks of life for its high artistry. Because its music accompaniment takes jujube bangzi as the beat, it was named Henan Bangzi in the early days.
