Nestled in a hutong in Beixinqiao lies a community striving to promote cultural exchange. It provides a place for expats, foreigners, and locals to meet and exchange ideas and experiences.
Several international students gathered at the community near their school in Qinhuangdao to learn how to make zongzi and experience the traditional culture of China.
This year, the golden zongzi appeared earlier in the market. Due to the recent gold market slump and the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival, the golden zongzi have achieved good sales.
Prior to storing water at the Three Gorges Dam in Hubei province, a cultural relics protection zone was built at the Mount Phoenix scenic area in Zigui county, located across from the dam.
Villagers have a trial run of their new dragon boat during a launching ceremony at the Chenhanhui Shipyard at Shangjiao village in Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong province, June 6, 2013.
China's traditional arts have made one of the greatest artistic and cultural contributions to the nation's rich heritage and to mankind. This can be seen even from small day-to-day supplies.
For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped to form a pyramid using bamboo or reed leaves) and racing dragon boats.
