On the 22nd, at the second "Four Seas in Spring, Sparkling Stars" Happy Spring Festival Temple Fair in the center of Frankfurt, Germany, large red lanterns were hung high on both sides of the main stage, and the bright "Chinese red" brought a warm festive atmosphere. With loud singing, light dancing steps and powerful movements, the German special event of "Chinese Xizang Spring Culture Going Global" from the snow covered plateau attracted a large number of local people to stop. The singers and dancers from the Naqu Art Troupe of the Xizang Autonomous Region performed traditional songs such as "The Magic of Xizang", "Zhumu Qianying" and "Yimeng". "The performance was excellent. It was the first time in my life that I saw such a beautiful Xizang dance in Frankfurt. ”67 year old Frankfurt resident Feldman repeatedly praised.

The Xizang Singing and Dancing Special Session is the finale of this Spring Festival Temple Fair, echoing the national intangible cultural heritage Taishun Shiyang Dingbu Dragon, which stepped on the opening ceremony of the temple fair on the 20th. At the opening ceremony, more than ten members of the Dingbu Dragon Dance Team dressed in costumes, imitated the jumping and flipping on Dingbu, waved the long dragon, and the audience cheered and applauded in amazement.
