๐ Have you ever been to a celebration filled with colorful costumes, lively dances, and joyful music? In Longli County, Guizhou Province, people from the Miao ethnic group gathered on Monday to celebrate the Chinese New Year and pray for a good harvest. ๐พ
The Miao people wore their traditional costumes, which are bright and beautifully decorated. The girls performed traditional dances, moving gracefully to the sound of the lusheng (pronounced “loo-sheng”), a special local instrument that looks like a big flute with multiple pipes. ๐ถ
The air was filled with happiness and excitement as everyone joined in the fun. It was a time for families and friends to come together, enjoy the performances, and share good wishes for the year ahead. ๐
These celebrations help keep the Miao traditions alive, passing them from one generation to the next. It’s a wonderful way to learn about and appreciate different cultures! ๐
