Watertown Carnival Enjoys Spring Brightness

Every year from the Pure Brightness to the Grain Rain,that is the time the farmers are free, the villagers of neighbourhood gather together and rush to the surrounding major temples to burn incense and pray for a good harvest of silkworm flowers. Over time, the Temple Fair has been formed, which is also very lively nowadays. Mr. Mao Dun once described"Temple Fair" in his prose: "In the past, when the countryside was"Taoyuan", this"Temple Fair"was the rural carnival".

From March 30 to April 21, the 19th China Wuzhen Temple Fair was staged in the Wuzhen Scenic Zone and Wu Village. At that time, there will be a grand performance of stepping on a white boat at the Xishi River; under the Silkworm Holy Pavilion, the old silkworm farmers pray for fragrance and pray for silkworm flowers to reappear in the harvest; there will also be the wonderful Suzhou commentary of West Storytelling Room, the melodious Yue opera and Huagu opera on the water stage, which make people forget to return home when they listen to them; Fortunately, they will encounter magic and pick up lines occasionally in West Scenic Zone. Puppets and other wonderful Carnival performances really make people enjoy themselves.
