White Festival: The biggest festival in a year, equivalent to the Spring Festival of the Han nationality, also known as "Bai Yue". Legend has it that it is related to the whiteness of milk, which means wishing good luck. The time of the festival is roughly the same as the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, every family eats hand-grabbed meat, including jiaozi and pancakes. On the morning of the first day, the younger generation will offer "farewell wine" to their elders.

Huashan Festival is a traditional festival of Miao nationality.

From the second day to the seventh day of the first lunar month, it is the annual "Walking Flower Mountain" festival for Miao people in Pingbian, Mengzi and Hekou, Yunnan. At this time, the Miao people in one village came from the open space between several Miao villages in all directions. "Flower pole" is an important symbol of stepping on Huashan Festival. Generally, tall pine or cypress trees are selected and tied with flowers and colorful flags. The people in Dinghua Village (also called Flower Head) are recognized as "good people". On the first morning of the festival, men must erect their style before the sun rises.

Songkran Festival is the most solemn festival of Dai people.

It is also the most influential festival with the largest number of participants in ethnic festivals. Songkran Festival is the Dai New Year, which is equivalent to the middle of April in Gregorian calendar. This festival usually lasts for 3 to 7 days. On the first day, the Dai language was called "Mairi", which was similar to the Chinese New Year's Eve. The next day, the Dai language is called "angry day" (empty day); The third day is the first day of the New Year, and it is called "Overlord Horse", which is actually the beginning of a year. People think this day is the most beautiful and auspicious day. In the early morning of the festival, Dai men, women and children put on festive costumes and carried clear water. They first went to the Buddhist temple to bathe the Buddha, and then began to splash water on each other to wish each other luck, happiness and health. People are dancing and shouting "water! Water! Water! " The sound of gongs and drums is soaring, and the water is splashed everywhere. The scene is really spectacular.
