Naoge is a type of folk performance usually staged one day before the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar calendar.
Each man in a parade carries an iron frame fastened to his waist with a child wearing a colorful costume standing on top. The men parade to the beat of drums and gongs.
