Jingzhou Ancient Painting Opera is one of the major Han operas in Hubei, formerly known as Huaguzi and Tian Ming Ancient Painting Opera. It is a local opera that gradually developed after the end of Ming Dynasty, in the folk singing form of the local Han nationality, constantly absorbing the repertoires, voices and performances of other operas, such as sangbang drum, walking on stilts and picking lotus boats. Popular in all areas under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou, and spread to neighboring places such as southern Hubei and northern Hunan.
