Fish festival of the Tay ethnic people

Fish festival of the Tay ethnic people

Mau Due Commune, Yen Minh (Ha Giang) Tuyen Quang

Fish festival of the Tay ethnic people On the 9th day of the 9th lunar month every year, the Tay ethnic people in Mau Due commune, Yen Minh (Ha Giang) organize the Fish Festival to pray for favorable weather, good harvests and show the cohesion of the community, family and clan. This is a beautiful cultural feature of the Tay people in Yen Minh district that has been preserved by the government and people and built into a typical tourism product, attracting tourists. The Fish Festival of the Tay people in Yen Minh was recognized as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2016. On this day, people in the commune wake up early in the morning to prepare fish dishes, burn incense to worship the gods, and pray for a year of good weather and good crops. This year's Fish Festival is held on a district scale with many unique traditional cultural activities such as: fish racing, catching fish by hand in fields, competing in wrapping fish-filled banh chung, grilling field carp, and experiencing making leaf-fermented corn wine... The most exciting, unique and attractive part of the festival is the fish competition held in the wide stream flowing through the commune. Almost every house in the commune raises field carp. When the rice season is ripe, people drain the water to catch fish for Tet and choose the biggest and strongest ones to bring to the racing festival. In addition, within the framework of the festival, displays of OCOP products, agricultural products, cuisine, and typical local products are also organized. This year's Fish Festival was held on the occasion of the buckwheat flower season in the Dong Van Karst Plateau Global Geopark, so it attracted thousands of tourists to visit and experience. The organization of the Fish New Year festival not only motivates people to work enthusiastically, produce, encourage livestock development, increase income, but through the festival contributes to promoting the image of people, resources, and typical and unique tourism products of the district to a large number of people across the country.
