historical origin

There are many folklores about the historical origin of Kazakhstan Festival, among which there are representative legends: in ancient times, a song fairy came to the three islands of the Jing nationality to mobilize the masses to resist the feudal oppression in the name of passing songs. Her singing touched many people. In order to commemorate her, later generations established the "Harting" and regularly sang songs in Harting, gradually becoming a festival custom. Harting in each village is the center of festival activities.

Another said that four or five hundred years ago, there was a huge centipede spirit under Bailong Ridge on the coast of Beibu Gulf. It eats human beings. Every ship passing by in the sea from now on must be given a living person to eat it, otherwise it will overturn, causing people's wives to be separated and restless. Once a God knew it, he came here to wipe out harm for the people. When the centipede came to the entrance of Jingdong, the immortal stuffed the hot pumpkin into the centipede's mouth, and the centipede swallowed the big pumpkin. The centipede swallowed the big pumpkin, burned it, and the corpse was cut off three times, and then drifted along with the waves to become ten thousand tails, Wushan, Shanxin "three islands of the Jing nationality", and the residents nearby could live and work in peace and contentment. So the Jing people worship the immortals as "the great king of Zhenhai". They set up temples to offer sacrifices to him. Every year they go to the seaside to welcome the "great king of Zhenhai" to enjoy sacrifices, which becomes the annual Hakka Festival.
