The Yingge dance, also known as the "Dance of the Heroes," is a traditional folk dance from southeast China. Believed to date back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), this dance is said to find its origins in the legendary stories of the heroes from the Chinese classic "Water Margin." The performance, characterized by its thrilling dance moves, exaggerated makeup, and brightly colored costumes, transforms the modern-day performers into the swaggering heroes of ancient times. #2024ChinaAgenda #Sprin
