Dashuhua, or traditional spraying iron craftsmanship, is an art form that was listed as an intangible cultural heritage.

Using a wooden ladle soaked in water for three days, folk artists perform this stunt by throwing arcs of burning molten metal (at a temperature of about 1600 ℃) through the air that bursts into glowing sparks onto a cold and hard wall, delighting audiences.

By experimenting with metals, the performers can create a multi-colored array of "flowers", improving on the original red.Legend has it that in ancient times, blacksmiths used to throw hot melted iron against the cold walls during Lantern Festival. When the metal struck the walls, it exploded into a shower of sparks to scare demons away.The 500-year tradition has now become a popular performance for tourists.
