Breathing new life into century-old Yueju Opera
Yueju Opera is one of the five major Chinese operas. It is skillful in narration and sentiment and is popular across China. This timeless form of intangible cultural heritage now has new apprentices. We followed a young duo of Yueju Opera performers: eleven-year-old Wang Yuhan and her stage partner, nine-year-old Huang Xinru in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, as they shared kindred spirits in inheriting the performing art of Yueju Opera.
Fiery Tales of the Daliang Mountains
In this episode, our host takes you to Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province, to celebrate the most traditional Torch Festival with the local Yi people. Water nourishes the farmland; fire brings light and warmth. Water and fire are the two essential elements that sustain the life of the Yi people. Puge County is known as the birthplace of the Yi Torch Festival. Our host travels across mountains to the remote heart of Puge County, in search of the origins of the Yi torch, to learn about local daily life, explore the profound Yi culture, and visit a Yi family to share a special “reunion dinner” on the eve of the Torch Festival—just like their own New Year's Eve feast. Together with the locals, we celebrate their most magnificent festival: the Torch Festival.
Fun Guide to China: Hainan 2
In this episode host Tianran He continues his adventure across Hainan. This time, the road trip begins in Dongfang, where Tianran tucks into roast suckling pig by day and, by night, attends grassroots basketball games that rival NBA games in atmosphere. In the mountains of Wuzhishan, Tianran explores a lush jungle with forest rangers, before stepping back in time to 1988 for a retro-chic disco night. In Lingshui, the journey moves offshore as Tianran enjoys a seafood feast on a floating fishing platform, then heads back to shore to visit a contemporary art museum by the pier. After reaching Sanya in the south, he joins scuba divers on a mission to restore coral reefs, before winding down on a yacht with friends and laughter. Finally, Tianran travels to Baisha for the “La’aomen” harvest festival, where the local ethnic Li people sing, dance and celebrate their most important crop: “Mountain Orchid Rice”.
