The production materials are mainly local straw, palm leaves, bamboo, sunflower stalks and special dragon incense, and the technology used is also the traditional local binding technology. The summoning ceremony of dragon dancing is held around the Lantern Festival in the first month of each year. There are round dragons, flat dragons and special sulfur dragons, which are divided into 7, 9, 1 1 arches, with a maximum of more than 4 meters and a minimum of 2.5 meters. Although the production materials are simple, the production process is exquisite and complicated, and the dragon dance has strong public participation and typical regional symbolic culture.

According to the folklore of the Han nationality, Rucheng was flooded for years in the Song Dynasty, and the people were in dire straits. Villagers stabbed and burned grass dragons to remove floods. Being a grass dragon has become a custom and folk entertainment of the Han nationality.
