Warm Spring Town in Yuxian County has a long history and profound cultural heritage. It is located in the west of Yuxian County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province. It is named after the long-flowing spring water in the center of the town, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. In addition to the lantern festival, paper-cutting and other folk characteristics, the people of Wenquan Town in this county have also inherited the unique stunt of "Da Shu Hua Show" in China for more than 500 years. During the Spring Festival, there was a grand occasion of "100,000 people enjoying trees and flowers" in Yuxian. "Da Shu Hua Show" expresses people's good wishes for celebrating festivals and longing for a sweet life.
The main characters in the performance of "Da Shu Hua Show" are four artists wearing straw hats and sheepskin jackets. Two of them are Wang, one is Zong and the other is Liu, aged between 40 and 55. Their costumes are used to prevent burns. Folk artists performed "Da Shu Hua Show" on the wall nearly 10 meters high behind them, and they could see the rust, which was the trace left by Da Shu Hua Show before. When the hot molten iron was poured into the basin in front of the city wall, a master went on stage. In order to create a more enthusiastic scene, performers will splash a few spoonfuls of molten iron one after another while the previous fireworks are still in full swing, so that sparks come and go, giving people a unique visual feast. The performer of "Da Shu Hua Show" wore a sheepskin coat and a hat, and used a special wooden spoon to splash the molten iron melted at high temperature on the hard city wall. The molten iron at more than 1,600 degrees Celsius hit the cold city wall, splashing bright sparks, stringing them together in a tree crown, and then instantly disappeared into the dark night. Performers will make a new round of sparks before the sparks dissipate, and the continuous sparks will form a golden "flower rain", which will bring warmth to people in the cold winter.
