The lion dance culture of Linghu Village has a history of more than 100 years.

Super-burning, Huizhou Puning Yingge team "bombed the street" at the same time
In the parade team, a young team, the Guanyin Pavilion Town Goose Singing Team, was handsome and sassy, and earned enough eyeballs. Founded in 2024, the team is the first Ying song and dance team in Guanyin Pavilion, which is composed of primary and secondary school students in Guanyin Pavilion Town, inheriting and carrying forward the unique folk art of English song and dance. Although they are young and have not been established for a long time, their performances are presentable and their movements are clear-eyed.
In recent years, the British song and dance from the Chaoshan area has opened the mode of "bombing the street", which is widely welcomed by the masses. In the Guanyin Pavilion Folk Culture Parade, the Puning Fumei Youth English Song Team was invited to let everyone experience the authentic British song and dance performance. Yingge (Puning Yingge) is a national intangible cultural heritage. The self-created heroes of the Puning Fumei Youth Song Team, such as fighting tigers, spreading wings in Dapeng, picking grass and catching snakes, and flying down the drums, won bursts of cheers and cheers from the scene.
Looking forward to it, the masses are waiting for the addiction early
Everywhere the parade team went, there were always thousands of empty alleys, causing bursts of cheers, and everyone waved their hands excitedly, picked up their mobile phones and cameras to record the wonderful moments. Like the rest of the audience, Xiao Zhang, a crowd member of the Guanyin Pavilion, got up early in the morning and waited at a point on the parade route. He said: "Experiencing the characteristic folk activities of Guanyin Pavilion at one time is very shocking and enjoyable. "Guanyin Pavilion Town Tongxing Kindergarten organized more than 40 children from the kindergarten to watch on the spot. Kindergarten teacher Deng Wanling said: "Our kindergarten is carrying out intangible cultural heritage education, and this activity is just a good time for everyone to experience the charm of intangible cultural heritage on the spot. ”
Culture, the imprint and symbol of a place. Cultural inheritance is not only to retain roots and nostalgia, but also to let the spiritual power be transmitted in the heart. It is precisely for this reason that Guanyinge Town organized this folk culture parade, not only to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of intangible cultural heritage, but also to improve the people's sense of well-being, and to enhance cohesion, and to empower the "Millions of Projects" with the power of culture to be implemented locally.
