The Zhuang ethnic group’s vibrant Sanyuesan Festival lit up south China’s Guangxi region this week, blending ancient traditions with modern energy! Locals showcased their heritage through folk songs, mesmerizing dances, and mouthwatering delicacies—all part of festivities dating back centuries. Recognized as a national intangible cultural heritage, the festival marks the third day of the third lunar month, proving tradition is anything but boring.
Meanwhile, Nanning gears up for the Global Mayors Dialogue (Jan 15–18, 2025), themed 'Urban Openness & China-ASEAN Cooperation.' The event aims to boost economic ties, cultural exchanges, and city-to-city tourism links—think K-pop meets dim sum, but with policy talks!
Experts predict it’ll create new opportunities for cross-border innovation, making Southeast Asia’s future brighter (and tastier).
