It is popular in Mianning County and takes place on March 6 of the lunar calendar. The festival is mainly celebrated to pray for rain and child. A lama brings frogs, snakes and toads made of sticky rice with him. Each family sends one or two deputies. They come to the raceway together. The lama patters, placing the animal figures in the water. While returning, they open the rain gear and make a racket, indicating it has begun to rain. After then, they worship a round pagoda which contains a knife and a boiler symbolizing procreation. The married women without babies will vow to the pagoda god for a baby. The woman, who gives birth to a baby, has to repeat the worship for her vow at the pagoda.  |
