🇭🇰Cheung Chau Island, there is a kind of excitement called Tai Ping Ching Jiao Festival

For more than a hundred years, the residents of Cheung Chau Island have held the Tai Ping Ching Jiao Festival every year to pray for peace and prosperity. The island's colorful folk crafts, such as paper-made statues, floats, mountain buns, and peace buns, as well as qilin dances, gongs and drums, and Taoist music 🎏, these folk performing arts 🐲 are all showcased through this traditional festival. The annual “Bun Carnival” is very popular and attracts many local and overseas tourists to participate. The bun grabbing competition was tense and exciting 🧗🏻‍♀️. The gongs and drums for the start of the competition sounded 🎷, and there was cheering and shouting at the scene. The contestants climbed up a mountain more than ten meters high, which was made up of 9,000 peace buns. They used their hands and feet to pick as many peace buns as possible at a very fast speed. The scene was even more lively than the Chinese New Year! The Piao Se Parade is also not to be missed. Children dress up as ancient and modern figures 🦸🏻, stand on a stand, and parade through the streets to drive away ghosts and gods 🪄. After a day of fun, you can try the peace buns, which symbolize peace and health, as well as the Cheung Chau specialty fish balls and grilled squid and dried shrimps 🍤. These are all special delicacies on the island that will make you linger. Do you want to experience the prosperity of the city 🌃, but don’t want to miss the island style ⛰️?
