Shehuo parade held before Spring Festival in NW China's Ningxia

Performers play lion dance during a Shehuo parade in Yinchuan, northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Feb. 10, 2018. The performance of Shehuo can be traced back to ancient rituals to worship the earth, which they believe could bring good harvests and fortunes in return. Most Shehuo performances take place around traditional Chinese festivals, especially the Spring Festival and the Lantern Festival. (Xinhua/Wang Peng)
