The dance Ladies with Fans in Spring gets its inspiration from the painting Ladies Enjoying the Cool by Qian Xuan (1239-1299). It is accompanied by Nanyin, an ancient Chinese music sung in Minnan Dialect, which is honored as Music Performed for the Emperor and World Intangible Culture Heritage. The acting takes Kebu, the characteristic steps of the female characters in Liyuan Opera, for reference, which features elegance and tranquility. The dance consists of three major acts: Ladies with Fans Walking out of the Painting, Ladies Touring in the Garden with Faces Covered by Fans and Ladies Enjoying the Cool and Catching Butterflies with Fans. It pictures the scenes of ladies in ancient times enjoying a spring trip. The use of traditional Chinese fans help to show the elegance and charm of ladies. 同题参见
