Recently, at a farmer's banquet in Nanjian Yi Autonomous County, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, the Yi people's dance performance added a strong flavor of the New Year to the festival. The Yi dance, also known as the "dance of lifting dishes", is a national intangible cultural heritage. It is not only a ceremonial dance, but also a vivid embodiment of Yi culture. The performances are diverse, including hand-holding, mouth-holding and head-holding, showing the wisdom and enthusiasm of the Yi people. Today, the dance teams of various villages in Nanjian County are active in folk activities and tourism scenes, bringing tourists an immersive experience of Yi customs.
