A traditional ceremony paying homage to the legendary Chinese emperor Huangdi took place on October 14, 2021, in a mountain temple in the southeastern city of Lishui in Zhejiang province. The spectacle, featuring dozens of performers decked out in historical garb, honoured Huangdi, also known as the Yellow Emperor, who was believed to have ruled China 5,000 years ago and considered the progenitor of Han Chinese culture.
