Who knows the Hakka customs in Meizhou, Guangdong?

I copied it from the website provided by Resources.

Hakka people are hospitable, especially Meizhou, the world's guest capital! Hakka Tradition

As descendants of ancient Central Plains people, Hakka people have inherited the excellent cultural traditions of the Chinese nation, which can be summarized as hard work, hospitality, respect for teachers and education, and patriotism and love for their hometown. Hakkas moved from the Central Plains to Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi. Because the plain area has been occupied by aborigines, they can only settle in barren mountainous areas, so their lives are hard and they must struggle. Hakka's pioneering spirit and self-made ability are also very prominent. Hakka women, in particular, are famous all over the world for their diligence and virtue, excellent farm work and housework, and particularly strong family values, and are known as "man of iron"; As immigrants, the early Hakkas lived in sparsely populated, backward and remote mountainous areas, and their psychological needs for interpersonal communication and awareness of solidarity and mutual assistance were particularly strong. Although their lives were hard, they developed a cultural tradition of hospitality. Hakka ancestors "dressed south" from the Central Plains, most of them came from "scholarly families", so they had a high cultural quality and always attached importance to cultural education. Among them, Meizhou has the most outstanding performance and is known as the "hometown of culture".

Guangdong Han Opera

Guangdong Han Opera used to be called "Waijiang Opera" and "Xingmei Han Opera", but it was renamed as Han Opera in 1933. It is popular in Meixian, Shantou, northeastern Guangdong and the border areas of Guangdong, Fujian and Jiangxi. During the period from Yongzheng to Qianlong in Qing Dynasty, Huizhou Opera was formed after it was introduced into Guangdong. The performance program of Guangdong Han Opera is similar to that of Beijing Opera, xiang opera Opera, Qi Opera and Hubei Han Opera, but it also has its own characteristics and styles. Its martial arts belong to the southern school, and there are more than 1 kinds of facial makeup, mainly in black, red and white. Black symbolizes bravery, red symbolizes loyalty and virtue, and white and cyan symbolize sinister and treacherous. Guangdong Han Opera's musical vocals are mainly Pihuang, including Kunqu Opera, Gaoqiang Opera, Blowing Opera, Minor, etc., and many ancient tunes are preserved. Simple and honest, high and solemn, are the inherent style characteristics of Guangdong Han opera music singing. His roles are divided into nine categories: Gong Jiao, Lao Sheng, Xiao Sheng, Lao Dan, Zheng Dan, Hua Dan, Hong Jing, Wu Jing and Ugly Jiao. Its accompaniment instruments are also quite distinctive. Headstring, Dasu Gong and Horn are the unique accompaniment instruments of Guangdong Han Opera. There are more than 8 traditional Chinese dramas in Guangdong. The more famous ones are Priscilla's Wife, Qi Wang Qiu Jiang, and the modern drama A Bag of Wheat Seeds.

Hakka dialect

Hakka dialect is a dialect centered on Meixian dialect. It is mainly distributed in the eastern and northern parts of Guangdong, and about 2 counties and cities in the province belong to Hakka dialect areas. It takes Meixian dialect as the standard, because Meixian dialect has great influence and clear language. Hakka dialect is also a Chinese dialect formed in ethnic migration. Before the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Hakka ancestors lived in the Central Plains. At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, various wars and natural disasters occurred in the Central Plains, and Hakka ancestors had to move south. Some moved to Hubei, Hunan and other places, and then left the chaos in the late Tang Dynasty, Five Dynasties and Ten Countries, and some moved further south to Jiangxi and Fujian. By the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song and Yuan Dynasties were at war, and the world was in chaos. Hakka ancestors further moved to Guangdong and gradually settled in the eastern part of Guangdong. In the Song Dynasty, the registered permanent residence was divided into the main account and the customer, and the latter entered the customer, so it was called Hakka. In the process of emigration, because he stayed in Hunan and Hubei for nearly 4 years, he did not enter Guangdong until the Tang and Song Dynasties, so his dialect was closer to the dialect of Hunan and Hubei. Among the four dialects in Guangdong, it is also the smallest difference from Mandarin. There are six tones in Hakka dialect, which are divided into yin and yang, and the upper and lower tones are not divided, retaining six ancient vowels. There is a great difference in pronunciation between written language and spoken language. In addition, the Hakka ancestors originally used the northern dialect, and after living in Guangdong, they were influenced by different Cantonese dialects and geographical and historical environments, so they gradually disappeared.

Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month is a full moon night in the first year of the lunar calendar, which symbolizes happiness. The vast number of overseas Chinese hometown people meet the gods. Make big gongs and drums, dance golden lions, greet lanterns and burn fireworks to pray for good weather, good harvests and good luck in the new year. Puzhai Town, Fengshun County welcomes gongs and drums and burns "smoke racks" and "fire dragons" on the Lantern Festival night. It has a long-standing reputation and enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad. It is said that Puzhai has been burning fire dragons for two or three hundred years. At first, sulfur, white nitrate and charcoal were not made into gunpowder, and they were set off as rockets, sparks and plows. After hundreds of years of continuous evolution, the number of smoke racks has grown from five or seven to thirteen today, reaching more than ten meters. The fire dragon has developed from three or four sections to eleven sections today, with a length of more than 3 meters. And the use of colorful fireworks, the performance is strange, thrilling and spectacular. In the square, there were three loud salutes. In the sound of gongs and drums, the dragon dance began. Hundreds of young men waved torches and flew barefoot. More than 2 strong men held up the five-meter faucet, guided by hydrangeas, and nearly 1 brave men roamed the square with "Golden Carp", "Lobster" and "Aoyu" in their hands. The elder lit the kindling rope, and after Longkou spat out the golden beads, the fire dragons in each section gave off colorful sparks, and the rockets roared in the air, colorful. Dragon dancers churned in the sea of fire, and the scene was spectacular. Now, Puzhai Fire Dragon has leapt in Jieyang, Meixian and Shenzhen. People's Pictorial, CCTV and more than a dozen other newspapers and radio stations have reported it.
