Another shot from the Miao festival in Xijiang
We happened to be at the right place at the right time with a huge festival (visit of an important official + coverage by CCTV)for the inscription of the Miao culture to the national heritage. Local villagers all gathered at the village entrance in traditionnal costumes. Professionnal dancers & musicians from Leishan were also there for the occasion. it all ended in an enormous banquet that covered main street. A unique & incredible event to witness !!!!!

Bonjour Warren,

vous brillez avec vos photos de la Chine. Vous aviez le spectacle devant vos yeux et vous n'avez pas manque l'occasion. Cette scene est bien interessante en gros plan mais aussi riche de details et de decorations des habits des participants. J'immagine que vous aviez le probleme ou d'abord tourner votre appareil. Telle est la Chine je pense. Merci pour le partage genereux. Amicalement,

Branko
