In the heart of Guizhou Province, Guiyang became a vibrant tapestry of cultures as thousands gathered for a grand ethnic parade. The city pulsed with the rhythm of lusheng flutes, the thunder of gongs and drums, and the graceful movements of ethnic dances. Participants from various ethnic groups, adorned in their finest attire, transformed the streets into a living stage for cultural expression.
The two-kilometer parade, orchestrated by director Tang Huang, celebrated the theme of ethnic unity and collective joy. It showcased the open and welcoming spirit of Guizhou, aiming to present its rich ethnic heritage to a wider audience.
The festivities extended beyond the parade to embrace younger visitors with city tours that blended urban culture and lifestyle experiences. Guiyang also boasts eclectic markets and contemporary exhibitions, offering a vibrant blend of tradition and modernity.
Guizhou is a treasure trove of natural beauty, boasting landmarks like the Huangguoshu Waterfall and Xiaoqikong scenic area. Its mild summer climate, with average temperatures around 22.3°C, and lush forests make it an ideal summer retreat.
This vibrant parade in Guiyang marked a significant event in the lead-up to China Tourism Day, which will be celebrated in six cities across the country, including Chaozhou, Shenyang, Shijiazhuang, Ningbo, and Ordos.
