Dong people enjoy bullfighting, so all the villages raise buffaloes which are good fighters. The festival is celebrated on Hai day in September or August, the exact date of which varies from year to year [The traditional Chinese way of designating years, months, days and hours was to use a system of combining one of the 10 Heavenly Stems (Tian Gan) and one of the 12 Earthly Branches (Di Zhi)to form 60 unique pairs in a complete cycle. Hai is the last of the 12 Earthly Branches]. Before this, they will invite their opponents, and then fights are arranged between bulls. This is a truly unique event to see.
