Phoenix, also known as Yuanfeng, Luanfeng, Chu, Wanchu, Wanquail, Yuanluan, etc., is an important cultural image derived from bird worship and sun worship by ancient Chinese ancestors. Phoenix is ??also divided into male and female. The male is called Phoenix and the female is called Huang. It is an auspicious sign. In the "Book of Rites" of the Western Han Dynasty, Phoenix was listed as one of the "four gods" that suppressed evil and drove away evil. According to records such as "Shan Hai Jing" and "Shuo Yuan", the external shape of the phoenix combines the characteristics of various animals, such as a chicken head, a snake neck, a swallow's jaw, a turtle's back, a fish tail, and five colors. From ancient totem worship to a well-known auspicious animal, the phoenix has been endowed with rich meanings such as virtue, beauty, auspiciousness, and happy marriage, and has spawned folk activities such as the Phoenix Lantern Dance and the Phoenix Boat Race. In the context of the new era, Phoenix culture has been better inherited and developed. Since 2007, Yunyang Phoenix Lantern Dance, She Nationality Phoenix Costume, Honghu Phoenix Boat, etc. have been listed as China's intangible cultural heritage.
