Traditional event helps Chinese people find their cultural identity

Chang Yu-Chen from Yunlin county, Taiwan, shared her enjoyment of the traditional performances of these traditional songs and dance performances. "Those performances made the whole ceremony lively. Being here feels like traveling to the past," Chang said.

Thousands of attendees, including guests from Taiwan and overseas Chinese, participated while wearing yellow silk scarves to honor the Yellow Emperor and Leizu, his wife and the inventor of sericulture.

Invited by a friend, Malaysian Chinese Soh Siew Lan visited Henan and participated in the worship ceremony for the first time. For Soh, it is of great significance to participate in such an event. Soh said that the Yellow Emperor is the ancestor of the Chinese people, and she hopes that more Malaysian Chinese can have the opportunity to attend the worship ceremony at least once in their lives.

Additionally, the online worship platform, operational since 2020, allowed netizens to pray for China's prosperity and to express their wishes.
