folk culture

"Flower stepping Festival" of Miao Nationality in Linkou town

There are more than 2000 Miao people in Linkou town. The Miao Nationality in Linkou is not a native nationality, but was forced to flee from the two lakes in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River hundreds of years ago due to the disaster of war. The time and direction of arrival are different. According to the research, some of them came by detour from Sichuan, and some came by Western Hunan. Although they all maintain the common cultural characteristics of the Miao people, they are scattered in the remote, desolate, remote and closed mountains and valleys. Inconvenient transportation and no communication form the differences of language and clothing and national customs.

Every year on the third day of the first month is the traditional "flower walking festival" of the Miao nationality. In Xinzhuang village of Linkou Town, the Miao compatriots of Linkou town and Dayin town all come to participate in the festival, which is really lively. The festival of stepping on flowers here coincides with the traditional festival of Chinese people, the Spring Festival, which adds more rich content to Huashan and makes it more lively. Activities such as "flower stepping Festival" and "flower dancing Festival" are not only good opportunities for young Miao men and women to talk about love and marriage freely. Every "flower stepping Festival" or "flower dancing Festival", young men and women of the Miao family should wear beautiful jewelry, put on beautiful new clothes, gather in Huapo market to sing love songs and dance Lusheng dance, and choose their own favorite people while singing and dancing. Miao family members came to the girl with Lusheng in their arms to express their love for each other.

After that, Shuangshuang left Huachang and walked on the stone bridge near Huachang three times, which was called "stepping on the bridge", indicating that their love was as strong as the stone bridge at their feet. Until night came, they said goodbye. Every time they get married, go to the fair and step on flowers, Miao people, especially women, all over the world have to wear their costumes which have been woven, embroidered and sewn for many years. If you can have the opportunity to come to the scene at this moment, you will see that all kinds of clothes decorate the whole mountain. This kind of scene is enough to make people forget to go back for a long time.
