What are the special activities of Torch Festival?Feature 1: Bullfighting <br /> A loud horn sounded, and two bulls came towards each other with their eyes wide open. With a low roar, their two pairs of specially sharpened horns suddenly collided.The audience around cheered and shouted, and the bull was stimulated and encouraged, becoming more stubborn. Sometimes it attacked fiercely, sometimes it confronted the enemy, sometimes blood splattered, and sometimes it waited for an opportunity to counterattack. The victorious bull is dressed in red and has flowers on its neck and is led around the field by its owner, thus doubling its value. Feature 2: Wrestling <br /> Wrestling is very popular among the Yi people. There are two types of wrestling: tripping and no tripping. The loser is the one who falls down. Each village would select its strongest and most capable wrestlers to compete. In addition to receiving prizes, the winners are also celebrated and encouraged by their own villages with wine, sheep, cattle and other delicacies. Feature 3: Beauty Pageant <br /> The Yi people have loved and pursued beauty for generations. "Beauty Pageant" has always been the most important and distinctive activity in the Yi traditional Torch Festival since ancient times. The activity requirements are very strict. Beautiful Yi girls dress up in gorgeous clothes, holding yellow umbrellas, and slowly dance around the fire on the lawn to perform "Dolehe". The judges are all respected elders in the village. Their selection is both picky and natural. They not only look at the girls' figure and appearance, but also their dress and filial piety towards their parents and elders. More importantly, they judge based on their usual moral character and reputation for hard work. What should we pay attention to during the Torch Festival?The Yi people live mostly in deep mountains, where they are often harassed and attacked by poisonous insects and wild beasts.The symbol of a torch is to seek good fortune and avoid harm, so it is best for the holder not to extinguish the torch in his hand, but to keep it as bright as possible. |
