20 morning, the weather is slightly cold, more than 700 years of history in Qianfo Hill temple fair in Ji'nan, even more deserted.
reporters entered the scenic area at 9:30 a.m. from the South Gate of Qianfo Hill. The parking lot was empty, and there were not many tourists in the scenic spot. There is no trace of the temple fair.
the young people
at the temple fair walked away from the south gate to the main venue of the temple fair. Along the way, journalists met only a couple of middle-aged and elderly people in twos and threes.
"it's cold today and it's working day, so almost no young people come to the meeting. But there are more young people here when they hold three parent associations in March. In the vicinity of the WAN Buddha cave, the citizen Zhu Lao told the reporter, "the temple fair is stronger than the previous year, but on the whole it is still less and less people, especially young people, they do not have annual tickets, no old cards, and are willing to come in less." You see, many of these people come in to see with their old age cards. Not many young people visit gardens.
"young people come in less, because they want to buy tickets, and they don't have much of what they like." Ms. Zhang Yan said, "when I was young, I took advantage of a noon factory to rest and ride a bike to a temple fair in Qianfo Hill. At that time, there was no fun in other places. When I arrived at the temple fair, there was too many people at noon, but I could not squeeze into the temple gate.
more people are blocked out by tickets. "That day," said Ms. Zhang, "an old man took his grandson to a temple fair, and the old man had an old age certificate to be free of the ticket, but the child was overweight and bought a ticket. The old man said there was no money, the baby was crying, the old man was angry and left."
11 a.m., eleven times on the north gate of Qianfo Hill, a reporter interviewed a couple of young people to interview the two people's impression of the temple fair. "Last year, I feel like this year is also those things, nothing new, this year did not enter." The young man answered.
the theme is a bit far from the cultural theme
"not to say anything else, almost every temple fair is opened in the form of a prestige and gongs and drums, which makes people feel monotonous. In fact, the organizers can do more articles and add a little more cultural taste." On the 20 day, at the temple fair in Qianfo Hill, Ms. Zhang Qing told reporters that she went to the temple fair in Qianfo Hill almost every time, but the temple fair was in a hurry, and it felt no change every year. "
" I usually pay more attention to the temple fair. I hope that this folk custom can be passed down from generation to generation, and how to attract people even at the opening ceremony. " Zhang Qing said. Zhang Qing told reporters that there were many temple fairs, and there were a lot of peddlers that she knew. The peddlers almost came to the temple fair every year, selling the same things every year.
Mr. Zhou said that although it is a sign of the folk culture temple fair, it may still be a little less cultural. Mr. Zhou thinks the temple fair is lively, but except for two performances, all the rest are business stalls. Although many stalls sell stationery, such as books and stationery, they feel a little far from the theme of culture.
