Memorial held for legendary ancestor

"The culture of Huangdi in Jinyun has a long history," said Chen Shengyong, former dean of the School of Public Administration at Zhejiang Gongshang University. "It should be one of the main places for worshipping Huangdi culture and its legends. Promoting and developing Huangdi culture and exploring its rich cultural connotations are important for promoting the spirit of patriotism."

Showing respect to Huangdi in the new era is not only reverence for the ancestors who started the Chinese civilization, but can also inspire the Chinese to unite, helping build the common spiritual home for all Chinese, he added.
