What festivals do Dong people have? 1. Fireworks Festival

It is a traditional festival of the Dong nationality, popular in Sanjiang, Longsheng and Hunan Tongdao areas of Guangxi, and the Fulu Fireworks Festival in Sanjiang Dong Autonomous County is the most lively, and its main activity is to organize the villages to grab fireworks.

2. Annual festivals

On New Year's Eve, they pay attention to each person drinking a bowl of porridge, which means good weather and good harvest. There is also a custom of "scooping water": girls are scrambling to scoop water and scoop it into the well water to make white bubbles, which is the best luck.

In the New Year, it is popular for Dong compatriots to "play the same year". This activity is similar to the "group worship" of the Han nationality. When the "same age" team arrives at a place, the women there line up and ask each other questions in the form of singing, and the other party will answer them quickly, just like watching a movie.

The song in Sister Liu seems to echo each other, which is very interesting.

Step 3 catch up with the club

Dong people have the habit of catching up with clubs. The driving club is not in the stockade, but in the wild, such as Muping or Tianba, as a club field. Every social day, men, women and children flock to the social arena from all directions. Adults buy things, exchange agricultural and sideline products, and children watch the fun. Girls and young students put on new clothes. The girls wore all kinds of silver ornaments, embroidered waist braids and embroidered purses, which contained sour fish, sour meat and glutinous rice. They were in groups of three and five, all smiles, and invited young students to the club for lunch. Later generations buy candy for girls. For people who meet for the first time, those who love each other and have been in contact for a long time will revisit the old feelings and make an appointment for the next meeting. In the evening, epigenetic also invited the girl to the village for a meal. After dinner, young men and women went into the karaoke bars to sing. Nowadays, catching up with clubs has become a festival for young men and women to communicate with each other, and the club field has become a place for sex.

4. Bullfighting Festival

February and August of the lunar calendar every year. Dong people like bullfighting, and every village has a "Buffalo King" to compete. The circle of "Niu Wang" is mostly built near the Drum Tower, which is clean and ventilated, and is called "Niu Gong". Niu Wang has a special person to mow grass, carry water and mix materials, and often supplies honey, lard, rice wine and other foods. "King Niu" is huge, strong, covered in blood, with thick and sharp horns, like an open steel fork.

Prior to this, young people generally completed farm work ahead of schedule and actively collected, rewritten or newly edited a large number of folk songs or love songs; So as to compete with the strong players in the Song Dynasty at that time. At noon, the center of the concert-the green grass slope in Gaobazhaitou became a sea of people singing. Food songs, love songs and folk songs with unique tunes come and go. Young men and women use song parties to find their new and old friends, express their feelings, talk about what's going on in the world, or sing intoxicating love songs alternately until dawn the next day. Many young people become happy partners by singing. According to legend, the Gaoba song-catching party was held to commemorate a Dong female singer who was faithful to love.

Many Dong compatriots in Nanning get together every year to sing and exchange songs on the "Winter Solstice".

I hope this helps you. What are the traditional festivals of Miao and Dong people? Dong and Miao people are very close in dress.

Dong men's wear is mainly blue-black bright cloth-a kind of cloth dyed with natural fuel indigo, wrapped in Baotou and leggings. There is no difference between the Dong nationality and the Han nationality in the north.

Dong women's hair styles are on the left-this is very different from Miao women's hair styles, and Miao women's hair styles are behind their heads.

Some silver ornaments of the Dong nationality are close to those of the Miao nationality, but there are also great differences. Dong people have silver hats and no silver horns. The silverware of Dong nationality is decorated with the walking and swinging of Han women.

Dong women's clothing can be divided into skirts and trousers. The skirt is pleated, similar to that of Miao nationality. However, the Dong people's dress jacket has the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, and the top is open to reveal the tube top. However, some branches are similar to those of Miao nationality. In developed areas, the dress of Dong people is Hanfu.

The important festivals of Dong nationality are Spring Festival, offering sacrifices to ox gods (the eighth day of April or the sixth day of June in the lunar calendar) and eating New Year's Eve (the seventh month in the lunar calendar). In some areas, people celebrate the Year of Dong in 10 or 1 1 month. Due to the inter-ethnic communication, Dong people also have Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival. Among them, the festival of Dong nationality is called Walking Year. Eating club meals (Spring Club Day in February) is the custom of Dong people to eat club meals, but they don't engage in any activities. Collect fresh Artemisia ordosica (Artemisia ordosica and Artemisia annua) in fields, streams and hillsides, go home, wash and chop them, knead them into bitter water, bake them, mix them with auxiliary materials such as wild garlic (shallots), dried glutinous rice, dried bean curd, dried bacon, etc. (some glutinous rice can also be mixed, but the glutinous rice needs to be cooked half-cooked first and then mixed with glutinous rice), and steam or stew them to make them taste different.

Most Dong people celebrate the Spring Festival on the first day of the first month in China. In some places, the Year of Dong is celebrated at the end of 10 or at the beginning of10. April 8 or June 6 is a festival to sacrifice cows, and cows are not allowed during the festival. In addition, there are fireworks festivals, new rice eating festivals, production suspension activities, surname festivals, song catching parties, girls' festivals, bullfighting festivals, fireworks festivals and so on. The annual Fireworks Festival of Dong people is held at different times and places. Take Sanjiang Dong Autonomous County as an example, it is the third day of the first month (lunar calendar, the same below), Meilin is the second day of February, Fulu is the third day of March, and Linxi is October 26th. Fireworks are divided into the first gun, the second gun and the third gun. All the guns are tied with iron rings symbolizing happiness and wrapped with red and green lines. When detonated, the gunpowder iron gun was used as the impulse, and the iron ring was washed into the air. When the iron ring falls, people take the iron ring as the goal and compete for it, which is called "grabbing fireworks". It is said that whoever wins the fireworks will be prosperous and happy in this year. * * * The venue also sang Dong Opera, played colorful songs, played Lusheng, played Leaves and played basketball.

According to local legend, a long time ago, there was a venerable patriarch. Because he refused to pay tribute to * * *, * * led people to surround the village. In order to safeguard national dignity and the safety of villagers, clan leaders stepped forward and were expelled from the army to defend the border. Later, clan leaders were allowed to return home from the frontier, which was on the 30th day of the lunar calendar 1 1 month. The local people played lusheng, pipa and gongs and drums to visit the patriarch. Later generations called this day Dong Nian. During the festival, in addition to making Ciba, families have to kill pigs and sheep to celebrate. On New Year's Eve, people mainly eat meat instead of vegetables.

December 29th of the Dong people's lunar calendar is a small year, also known as "the year of one's period", which is a festival to commemorate one's period. It means that sisters of generations go home to visit relatives and reunite during the Spring Festival. On this day, in addition to the food for the New Year, Dong Jia also used some Baba with sour meat as "new year's goods" and sweet wine as a souvenir. It was said that some aunts and aunts did not drink soju, but drank sweet wine, which reflected Dong Jia's traditional virtue of respecting women.
