Coming-of-age ceremony held in Baotou

Some 800 students of No 1 Senior High School of First Machinery Group attend a Confucian-style coming-of-age ceremony held on June 25. The ceremony, which is called Ji Li (for girls) and Guan Li (for boys), honors people who have turned 20, and provides a fun opportunity to wear traditional dress. Girls can follow typical Ji Li practices like wearing their hair in buns and attaching hairpins. [Photo/Baotou Daily]
