What are the legal holidays in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region?

The local legal festival of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region "March 3rd Song Festival".

In recent years, the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has designated this day as a festival for the Zhuang people. The first Song Festival was held in Nanning from 65438 to 0984. More than 700 singers from various counties performed on stage, making Tancheng a sea of singing and dancing in March. Even foreign friends have traveled across the ocean to share the joy of the festival with the Zhuang people.

Song Club is not only a grand event to promote national culture, but also a grand event for national economic exchanges. According to records, the song club has a history of thousands of years. The development of Zhuang folk songs is particularly prominent, and the songs are well-known. In ancient times, young men and women gathered in the street or by the river to hold banquets and sing songs. In the Qing Dynasty, hundreds or even thousands of people gathered to sing.

During this period, there are often superstitious activities such as offering sacrifices to gods and playing tricks. But more attractive are fireworks, acting, acrobatics, martial arts performances, dancing colorful dragons, dancing Cai Feng, singing tea-picking poems and other colorful entertainment activities. In recent years, new plays, movies and ball games have been added. However, most of the attention of young men and women is not in this respect, but in how to find the right partner through the concert.

Niuhun Festival

On the eighth day of April every year, it is the festival of cattle soul, also called the festival of taking off the yoke. In the eyes of the strong, cows are sacred objects in the sky, not ordinary animals on the ground. There is a story that it was born in the sky on the eighth day of April, so this day is the birthday of Niu Wang. The ox king was ordered to descend from the sky and sow a hundred herbs. Originally, it was planned to sow grass seeds in three steps, but the lake was polluted, but three seeds were sown in one step, which made weeds overgrown and occupied Tianhe.

Therefore, he was punished to stay on the earth and eat grass. But god has not forgotten. On the eighth day of April every year, Niu Wangmo falls from the sky to protect cows from death, because it is a festival for cows. On this day, people and cows stop working. The host soaked the steamed rice with glutinous rice in the maple leaf, and then pinched a ball for the cow to eat first. There is a small low table outside the cowshed, on which offerings are placed and incense sticks are lit to worship Niu Wangmo. People also sing folk songs and colorful tunes to celebrate the birthday of cows.

A golden knot

The second day of June every year is King's Day, which commemorates Mo Yi, a Zhuang hero who dared to resist the feudal emperor. Zhuang people on both sides of Liujiang River and Longjiang River regard him as their ancestor, and his god position is written on the shrine. June 2 is a small sacrifice every year, and a big sacrifice every six years. The big sacrifice is very grand, and a grand ceremony will be held at King's Temple in Mo Yi. There are two animals for sacrifice, namely a pig and a cow.

The method of sacrifice is also very special. The twelve dishes should use different parts of pigs and cows, such as meat, bones, liver and intestines, and they are indispensable. You can't cook twelve dishes at once and put them on the altar at the same time. Instead, you can send one at a time. When the twelve dishes are ready, you can burn paper and salute. After the sacrifice, each dish was divided according to the number of households in the village, and one person from each household attended the dinner.
