Zhetian Village, Anfu County, Jiangxi Province has a new festival every year on June 6th of the lunar calendar. Also known as eating dried skin, it means that after eating today's rich feast of wine and meat, it begins to enter the hot summer season.
On the morning of the festival, families go to the fields to pick new grains and vegetables for cooking and kill chickens for sacrifice.
