Cultural Customs of Weiyuan Scenic Area

In addition to the traditional festivals in China, such as New Year's Eve, Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Laba, sending stoves, there are also festivals with local characteristics, such as February 2nd and April 8th. The festival on the second day of the second lunar month, formerly known as "Flower Asahi", is called "killing insects" because local people will fry broad beans to eat. This custom has gradually disappeared, but idioms still exist. The eighth day of the fourth lunar month is a good time for an outing. Many people climb Lianfeng Mountain and Laojun Mountain to collect wormwood, which is called "wormwood in May and wormwood in April". Around April 8, famous "flower parties" broke out in western Weiyuan and surrounding areas such as Zongdan River.

The long-standing "May Meeting" and so on. The county borders Longxi County in Dingxi City in the north, Zhangxi 'an County in the south and Zhuoni, Lintan and Kangle County in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in the west.
