Play: Sipping wine is an ancient and unique cultural phenomenon of the Tujia people in Enshi Prefecture. It is often used to entertain guests at banquets or during work breaks in the fields. When sucking, "first one person sucks, which is called opening the altar, and then each other takes turns sucking." This is the Tujia's way of coordinating interpersonal relationships during drinking.
Festival: The Tujia people celebrate the New Year one day earlier than the Han people, which is called "crossing the New Year". In addition, April 18th and June 6th are major festivals. Dragon robes are dried on June 6th, and every family takes out the good fabrics to dry them. On this day, glutinous rice is also steamed and a cow is slaughtered. The Bodhisattva Bodhisattva is worshiped in the Wai Shou Hall. After the sacrifice, the whole village gathers to eat together.
