As the saying goes, "the insider looks at the doorway, the layman looks at the liveliness", what is particularly worth seeing? Staff made specific mention of two ----
The West Lake Silk Umbrella is one of the four national intangible cultural heritage projects in Yuhang District. The West Lake silk umbrella is known as the "Flower of the West Lake", and its biggest feature is "opening is an umbrella, and closing is a piece of bamboo". The silk umbrella is finely made, the umbrella surface is as thin as a cicada wing, and the umbrella bone is jade in color. When the umbrella is folded, it is just restored to a light and elegant round bamboo, simple and generous; when it is opened, the pattern of the umbrella surface is more ingenious, the ten views of the West Lake, the ancient ladies, the dragon and phoenix, the galloping horse, etc., are colorful and beautiful.
"Yue kiln celadon, in order to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Communist Party of China, non-hereditary heir Luo Hongwen specially created new works "Brilliant Course" and "One Hundred Years of Prosperity", which will be unveiled on the same day." The staff said.
In addition to the display of intangible cultural heritage, a series of intangible cultural heritage derivative design works such as Dragon Boat Festival gift boxes, decorative paintings, silk scarves, lamps, blue dyeing, and color ties are exhibited together.
New costumes, new props, new ideas
A new appearance of intangible cultural heritage programs

At 10:00 a.m. on the same day, the Yuhang District will create a provincial-level cultural heritage ecological zone and the "Passing on the Context to Welcome the Asian Games" intangible cultural heritage program exhibition and performance.

The Ishise Flower Lantern, which is a folk dance that is spread in the town of Bottle Kiln, is included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of Hangzhou. The traditional Ishise Flower Lantern is on the verge of being lost due to its lack of ornamentation. Later, the bottle kiln town upgraded the simple dance form, improved the props, music, costumes, etc., and increased the stage performance function, which was very popular.
"This year's folk dance "Liangzhu Drum Rhyme" has been re-excavated and improved, the action choreography and team formation have a new atmosphere, and the whole dance is more masculine, highlighting the heritage of Liangzhu culture and strengthening the ornamentation." The staff said.
The "Idle Forest Meteor" of The Street of Idle Forest has also been re-upgraded, a rope tied to a heavy object at both ends, and as the rope swings, the heavy objects on both sides are thrown into the air and can be caught again, just like a meteor. Some time ago, the "Idle Forest Meteor" heritage team re-customized the costume props, which will appear in front of everyone with a new look.
In the morning, the intangible cultural heritage program is performed, and in the evening, Hangzhou's traditional music and art projects will be on the stage, including Hangzhou stall springs, small hot dims, lotus flowers, funny little plays, one-man shows...
