🎧  Listen to Introduction

Yangko in the territory originated in the Yuan Dynasty. It was a way for people to improvise after work. After generations of evolution, it has developed into a unique art form with mixed performances of men and women and led by umbrella heads. When the yangko team is setting up the field, they can form various patterns, including "Four Doors of Noisy", "Rolling Cabbage Heart", "Snake Holding Nine Eggs", "King Qin's Random Selection of Soldiers", "Twelve Lotus Lanterns", "String of Money Dragons" and so on. The yangko that crosses the street includes "Double Braid Garlic", "Snake Shedding Skin", "Twisting Twist" and so on. There are many "barbarian women and barbarians" and "big-headed children" in the yangko team to support the yangko team. In addition to the big yangko that crosses the street and sets up the field, yangko performances often perform small programs. Small programs include dance, yangko drama, "moving four tones", "making a fuss", lion dance, running on a dry boat, Overlord Whip, stepping on stilts, kicking the field, playing waist drums, running bamboo horses, playing with bears, "two ghosts fighting" and other traditional programs.
