Locals participate in an annual parade honoring Guandi at Tongling Town in Dongshan County, southeast China's Fujian Province, June 20, 2013. Guandi, namely Guan Yu, was a senior general of shu han (221-263) during the three kingdoms period. Guan had been deified by feudal rulers of past ages because of his loyalty to his kingdom and was dubbed "guandi (emperor guan of military strategies)". Guan and confucius, known as the "emperor of education", were usually considered equal in status. (Xinhua/Wang Song)
