For a long time,people believed online trends were only for fun and quickly forgotten.However, Huagudeng is Anhui's intangible cultural heritage.The online trend lets people leam about this ancient art easily. At first,people only enjoyed the funny moves.Later,more visitors started to leam about its culture.They turned short funny moves into full,wonderful heritage.From short clips to full shows of the heritage,this online spread changed greatly.It helps people move from "just watching"to"copying"and finally "truly learning about"the heritage.In this way,the Internet shows its great value for culture.
