The annual three-day festival, held by the local Miao ethnic group, starts from May 25 in the Chinese lunar calendar. Ten of thousands of Miao ethnic people, including those from other towns, gather at the local banks to celebrate the festival which was listed as one of the China's national non-material culture heritage events in 2008.[Photo/CFP]
