It is the birthplace of the initial farming civilization of the Yellow River. Huangdi, Yandi, Chiyou, Yao, Shun, and Yu all left their footprints on this soil. It stands out in Chinese art by its long history, traditional culture and excellent folk culture.

It is an amazing stage play with rich Hedong cultural customs and it enjoys international audience over the world.

Preface

The Yellow River flows up the ground, and the sun and the moon go up in the sky. Because of the Yellow River, Hedong children have the same skin color as the Yellow River; because of the sun and the moon, the Hedong Drum Dance quaked with the power of the sun and the moon.
