Miao drums permeate the daily life of the Miao family, and during festival ceremonies, guests naturally need to play welcoming drums. The Miao drum drumming exudes an overwhelming sense of pride. The Miao family's children, dressed in formal attire and holding drumsticks, jump, spin, and beat, with drum sounds sometimes light and crisp, sometimes resounding and passionate. The pleasant welcome folk song was sung, and the sweet welcome wine was also served. The scene was grand and lively. The flower drum dance is gentle, gentle, graceful, and elegant. The ribbons on the drumstick float with the dance posture, like colorful clouds surrounding the Miao Village, bringing endless blessings. A neat and powerful shout merged with the sound of drums, adding to the enthusiasm of the dance. The flower drums made the Miao village lively and also struck into the hearts of the guests.
