On every harvest years, a theatrical troupe will be invitated to play drama. A saying of this festival's original is that a fisherman who fished on the bank of a river, he caught fish only after he fished out some tree tranks several times; on that night he dreamt a Dong King who came to ask for help, and the fisherman achieved to help him to carve his image by tree trank.The Dong King promised to help them on fishing, and so he did.
