A student walks on a tightrope during a daily training at a *dawazi* art center in Yengisar county in the Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur autonomous region, Dec 17, 2019. Tightrope walking is known as *dawazi* in Xinjiang, and it is believed to have been performed for about 2,000 years. Traditional *dawazi* performers walk on a tightrope made of grass, 15 to 21 meters above the ground, without wearing a safety harness or any protective equipment. *Dawazi* was given national intangible cultural heritage status in China in 2006.
