A traditional ceremony in honor of Confucius was held at a Confucian temple in Dujiangyan, Chengdu, on Sept 3.

The ceremony began with 108 traditional drumbeats. Performances of ancient music, dance, oration and rituals were held in strict accordance with Confucian culture.

After the ceremony, the temple unveiled a miniature architectural model of Dacheng Hall, the main building in the temple, characterized by south-Sichuan style. The model was made to promote the ancient building in Sichuan.
