Yunnan Ethnic Festivals

There are numerous ethnical groups and ethnical festivals in Yunnan Province. The number of ethnical festivals, either important or not so important, reaches about 400. In some ethnical groups, besides the common and important festivals, different branches have different festivals as well. Some festivals are celebrated by many different ethnic groups, but the time, means of celebration and legends may be different. For example, besides Yi, Bai, Naxi and Pumi also celebrate the Torch Festival. Besides Dai, Bulang and A’chang also celebrate the Water-splashing Festival. On the occasions of festivals, people will gather together in their traditional costumes, singing, dancing and playing games. The young people will look for their expected lovers and carry on love affairs with each other. Each festival is a jamboree activity when the tourists can get a better understanding of the ethnical culture.
