@cn_eyee: The stunning Yuexi Rice Terrace Torch Festival（越西梯田火把节） is underway in Liangshan, Sichuan, one of the most famous celebrations of the Yi Torch Festival（彝族火把节）. This festival has a history of more than 2,000 years. In ancient times, Yi farmers lit torches across farmlands to scare off crop pests, pray for abundant harvests and ward off illnesses and misfortune. For the Yi ethnic group, fire represents purity, strength and good fortune. The grand torch parade unites local clans, lets elders pass down Yi history, folk customs and moral values to young people, and strengthens the bond of the whole ethnic community. Today it’s a precious intangible cultural heritage of China. It showcases the unique culture of the Yi minority and helps more people understand diverse Chinese ethnic traditions. #YiTorchFestival #YuexiLiangshan #ChineseEthnicHeritage #TravelSichuan #RiceTerraceFestival
