In 1992, JinzhuZhuang Village was accredited as a good example of Zhuang Village by UNESCO. Tourists can watch archaic folk dance of the Zhuang nationality, such as “shoulder pole dance” to celebrate harvest, “shigong dance”to symbolize the adult ceremony of young girls and “bamboo sticks dance”for driving off beasts. In addition, wonderful and appealing mountain songs can be heard in JinzhuZhuang Village.
Once you’ve tasted the specialty dining in Jinzhu restaurant, you cannot leave without the original flavor drinking toast song of Zhuang people.When you are enjoying your drinking, a group of local girls will drink cups of veritable Longji watery wine and sing the drinking toast song that has been handed down for several generations. The main idea of the lyrics is: pathway is zigzag and flagstone is ultramarine.Zhuang young girls welcome the guests, serve light dishes and wines, showing the sincere heart of Zhuang people”. If you finish your wineglass, Zhuang girls will continue to sing for you “Longji watery wine is pure and unmixed, served for honoured guests, please go on drinking, wish you can be younger and younger”. If your drinking capacity is good, you can stand up and say“gan le”, which means “luosui” in Zhuang language.Singing in chorus with others contributes to increasing the affection and friendship between guests and Zhuang people. What’s more, the drinking song can make you feel the traditional flavor of the Zhuang culture.
