Recently, Chongqing is set to host a unique folk festival—the grand opening of the “World’s Largest Baopigutang Hotpot.” This event stems from the traditional Sichuan-Chongqing custom of “slaughtering pigs for the New Year and sharing Baopigutang,” a communal feast held in rural areas at year’s end to celebrate harvests and welcome the Lunar New Year. “Baopigutang” refers to a hearty soup made on-site with freshly slaughtered pork and offal, served hot to family, friends, and neighbors—a symbol of unity, abundance, and gratitude.Dubbed the “World’s Largest,” this Baopigutang will be cooked in a specially crafted cauldron several meters in diameter, using hundreds of kilograms of fresh pork and ingredients to serve over a thousand guests simultaneously. Beyond preserving tradition, the event incorporates intangible cultural heritage displays, folk performances, and a rural market, aiming to promote Bayu (Chongqing) culinary heritage and boost rural tourism and revitalization. Organizers hope this distinctive gastronomic celebration will introduce more people to Chongqing’s rich local culture and warm hospitality.Scheduled just before the Spring Festival, the event is expected to draw large crowds of tourists and locals alike, becoming a highlight of Chongqing’s winter cultural and tourism calendar.
近日，重庆即将举办一场别开生面的民俗盛宴——“天下第一刨猪汤大锅”开席活动。这一活动源于川渝地区传统的“杀年猪、吃刨猪汤”习俗，是当地农村在岁末年初为庆祝丰收、迎接新年而举行的集体聚餐仪式。所谓“刨猪汤”，是指将刚宰杀的新鲜猪肉、内脏等食材现场烹煮成热气腾腾的汤锅，邀请亲朋邻里共同品尝，寓意团圆、富足与感恩。此次“天下第一刨猪汤大锅”以超大规模著称，据称将使用一口直径数米的特制大锅，一次性烹煮数百斤新鲜猪肉及相关配料，可同时供上千人享用。活动不仅复刻了传统年俗，还融入了非遗展示、民俗表演、乡村市集等元素，旨在弘扬巴渝饮食文化，推动乡村旅游与乡村振兴。主办方表示，希望通过这一极具地方特色的美食盛事，让更多人了解并体验重庆深厚的乡土文化与热情好客的民风。该活动预计将在春节前夕举行，届时将吸引大量游客与市民参与，成为重庆冬季文旅的一大亮点。
