“斯里兰卡之夜”在福建泉州举办，开启文化交融之旅
2024年7月26日晚，一场名为“斯里兰卡之夜”的演出在“世遗之城”福建省泉州市举办，旨在通过沉浸式实景互动演出的形式，展示斯里兰卡与泉州两地深厚的文化交流历史与多元文化的共融。此次活动由泉州市鲤城区和斯里兰卡科特市政府共同主办，除了演出外，还安排了斯里兰卡文化艺术展、泉州与古锡兰文化交流历史艺术沙龙、斯里兰卡特色市集等一系列丰富活动，旨在展示两地的文化魅力，增进两地人民之间的文化交流与友谊。
此次“斯里兰卡之夜”演出汇聚了提线木偶、古闽越拍胸舞、南音等多种泉州特色表演艺术，以及康提高地舞、手鼓舞等斯里兰卡舞蹈，为观众带来了一场视听盛宴。斯里兰卡瑞维格舞蹈艺术团团长朗吉格吉旺特表示，康提高地舞是斯里兰卡最负盛名的传统舞蹈，不仅展现了斯里兰卡独特的民族特色，也是该国文化的重要组成部分。朗吉格吉旺特还提到，斯里兰卡手鼓舞的表演为泉州观众带来了异域风情，加深了对斯里兰卡文化的了解。
泉州与斯里兰卡之间的友好关系源远流长。历史上，锡兰（今斯里兰卡）国王曾派遣王子世利巴交喇惹来华入贡，并在归途路经泉州定居，留下了锡兰王子陵墓及其后裔故居等史迹。2020年，泉州市鲤城区与斯里兰卡科特市正式结为友好城市，标志着两地在文化交流与合作上的新里程碑。
此次“斯里兰卡之夜”不仅是一次文化交流的盛事，也是对两地深厚历史渊源的致敬。通过这样的活动，不仅加深了两地人民之间的了解与友谊，也为推动文化多样性与国际交流提供了新的平台。

On the evening of July 26, 2024, a performance titled “Sri Lanka Night” was held in Quanzhou, Fujian Province, known as the “World Heritage City,” to showcase the rich history of cultural exchange and the fusion of diverse cultures between Sri Lanka and Quanzhou. Organized jointly by the Quanzhou鲤城区 and the Kot city government of Sri Lanka, the event included not only the performance but also an exhibition of Sri Lankan arts and culture, a salon on the historical cultural exchange between Quanzhou and ancient Ceylon, and a Sri Lankan-themed market, aiming to display the charm of both regions and enhance cultural exchange and friendship between their people.
The “Sri Lanka Night” performance brought together a variety of Quanzhou’s distinctive performing arts, such as rod puppetry, ancient Minyue chest thumping dance, Nanyin, alongside Sri Lankan dances like Kandyan highland dance and hand dance, providing an auditory and visual feast for the audience. The director of the Sri Lanka Ravi Kirthi Dance Art Troupe, Rangi Geethanwatta, mentioned that the Kandyan highland dance is Sri Lanka’s most renowned traditional dance, showcasing the country’s unique ethnic characteristics and is an integral part of its culture. Rangi Geethanwatta also noted that the performance of Sri Lankan hand dance introduced a foreign flavor to Quanzhou audiences, deepening their understanding of Sri Lankan culture.
Historically, friendly relations between Quanzhou and Sri Lanka have been long-standing. In the past, the King of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) sent Prince Sili Bajirao to China to make a tribute, and on his return journey, he settled in Quanzhou, leaving behind historical sites such as the tomb of the Sri Lanka prince and the residence of his descendants. In 2020, Quanzhou’s鲤城区 and the city of Kot in Sri Lanka officially established friendly city relations, marking a new milestone in cultural exchange and cooperation between the two regions.
Beyond being a grand event of cultural exchange, “Sri Lanka Night” is a tribute to the deep historical roots between the two regions. Through such activities, not only do they deepen the understanding and friendship between the people of both regions, but they also provide a new platform for promoting cultural diversity and international exchange.
