The Yaowan Historical and Cultural Street Block held the first intangible cultural heritage temple fair from December 1 to 5, 2023. A variety of activities were held during the temple fair, including a "datiehua" folk art display, which literally means to "beat the iron flower" and involves splashing molten metal to create sparkling streaks of light; a lantern festival, folk acrobatic performances, a food fair, and events at an internet-famous theme park.
