[quote=DAVIDLU,488390]Cai Qing can be divided into many different kinds like Cai Gao Qing (pick the lettuces in a high place), Cai Di Qing (pick the leaves on the ground), Cai Shui Qing (pick the leaves in a basin of water) and Cai Qiao Qing (chairs are piled up as a bridge, and the "lion" picks the lettuces hung under the bridge). Cai Gao Qing is the most difficult of all. Two dancers (sometimes three or four) stand on each other's shoulders and the "Lion" dances while climbing a long bamboo to pick the lettuces hung on top. The annual Cai Qing ceremony has a history of hundreds of years in Guangzhou. It is often held in some temples across the Guangdong province to impetrate good luck in the next year. [/quote]
