Hello friends, today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month and tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Here I wish all my friends good luck in the Year of the Dragon and all the best. Today we come to the New Year Temple Fair at the City God's Temple in Luyang District, Hefei City, Anhui Province. Hefei is an ancient city with a long history during the Qin Dynasty. When the Han Dynasty was established , Hefei began to be used as a place name. The dictionary "Erya" explains the word "Fei" as "returning to differences and emerging from the same". Hefei is the birthplace of Feishui River . After flowing north for 20 miles, Feishui River is divided into Nan Fei River and Dong Fei River. As soon as you enter Chaohu Lake and enter the Huaihe River, the name Hefei comes from. In its long history, Hefei has accumulated a profound cultural heritage. There are only four national-level intangible cultural heritage items, including Lu Opera, and even more provincial-level intangible cultural heritage items. As many as 28 items. At this New Year temple fair, we can also see some wonderful displays of intangible cultural heritage inheritors. The Hefei City God Temple was built in the Northern Song Dynasty (1051 AD) and was later destroyed by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom war. The current City God Temple was rebuilt in 1879 at the end of the Qing Dynasty in 1980. After 2000, the City God's Temple Market was built around the City God's Temple. Temple fairs are held here every Spring Festival. Isn't it beautiful? These chocolate beans are used to make the dragon's eyes. Isn't the candy bitter? It’s not bitter.
