Tianjin Day to dazzle visitors at horticultural expo

Tianjin Day, which will take place from May 5 to 7, will also draw interest at the International Horticultural Exhibition 2019, Beijing, China.

The event will feature dances and Chinese martial arts performed by Tianjin youths and children, said Duan Yimin, vice-chairman of the Tianjin Sub-council under the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.

Tianjin's renowned Cathay Future Teenager and Children Art Troupe will dazzle visitors with first-class shows.

Young Tianjin martial arts fans from Jinghai county in Tianjin, the hometown of martial arts master Huo Yuanjia (1868-1910), will showcase their talented skills during the event.

A teenager and children's painting competition will be held for two months at the exhibition's venue for the Tianjin park, to inspire more green awareness, Duan said.

In addition, inheritors of the intangible cultural heritage Yangliuqing woodblock printing, folk clay figurine-making art Figurine Zhang, and leading kite-making brand Kite Wei will demonstrate their arts and techniques.

Some investment projects in the horticulture, agriculture and leisure travel sectors will be on show to entice investors, Duan said.
