When you come to Zhangjiajie, many people will talk about Xiangxi. At that time, people's impressions were first of the Miao and barbarian tribes, second of the bandit infested areas, third of the women's tendency to play pranks, fourth of the men's love for killing, fifth of the extremely bad and dangerous roads, and the people being extremely savage. Going on a trip is almost like exploring, sixth of all, if you have good eyesight, you may have the opportunity to see a group of dead bodies being driven on the road by corpse hunters, with cars approaching and knowing how to avoid them, just like living people. Of course, these are just stories, creating a mysterious color for the beautiful Xiangxi.

But what you may not know is that there is a performance about Xiangxi in Zhangjiajie, which is the large-scale song and dance drama "Charming Xiangxi". Charming Xiangxi expresses the cultural customs of the Tujia, Miao, Bai, Dong, and Yao ethnic groups in Xiangxi, and can also be said to be a grand play with strong ethnic flavor!

What is the charm of 'Charming Xiangxi'? Let me explain it to you below.

Let's talk about antiquity first. A sweet folk song "Ma Sang Shu Er Jian Deng Tai" is sung from the depths of Sangzhi Mountain. It is a love elegy of a woman who has gone through vicissitudes but remained loyal to her husband, loving only one person in her life! Ma Sangshu sets up a lampstand, writes a letter to her husband, waits for a year if you don't come, endures for two years if you don't come, locks can't be opened without the key... "The singing is as tearful as a woman's tearful cry

Speaking of mystery. Xiangxi is a very mysterious place; The mystery here is hidden in the magnificent Wuling Mountains; The mystery here shines in the works of Shen Congwen, the father of Chinese rural literature, and is hidden in Huang Yongyu's "Drunken"... When it comes to the mystery of Xiangxi, it is the three ancient myths of "corpse hunting, Gu Gu opera, and Chenzhou Prefecture" that make people most imaginative! The "corpse chasing" in the charming Xiangxi program portrays this mysterious phenomenon.

Xiangxi exudes a wild beauty amidst its simplicity and mystery! In the program 'Charm of Xiangxi', there is a dance called 'Maogusi', which is an art form that approximates nudity! Performers wear grass as clothing, exposing most of their bodies, and the content of the performance includes "Planting Spring", "Hunting", "Fishing", "Marriage Robbery", etc. People say that Xiangxi is a painting, a colorful folk style painting; The most frequently portrayed emotional stories in the program "Charming Xiangxi" are about human emotions. In the love competition scene between Cuicui and the two big shots in Shen Congwen's works, Cuicui's choice of who is always painful, but she ultimately has a beautiful ending in this love triangle!

When it comes to the stunning and dynamic charm of Xiangxi, in addition to "Chasing Love", there is also a play called "Trying Miao Costume"; That is a program where actors interact with the audience. Randomly select a few men from the audience, or volunteer to perform with beautiful Miao girls on stage. As the Miao drum plays, guests dressed in Miao sister-in-law costumes dance gracefully; So the charm of Xiangxi lies in its simplicity and mystery. When you come to Zhangjiajie, you can not only appreciate the rare "Zhangjiajie landforms" in the world, but also enjoy the art of "charming Xiangxi".
