Zhenjiang might be an important stop on the Yangtze River economic belt, but it lacks cultural vibrancy. The Changjiang International Music Festival is trying to change that. Chen Nan reports.
Zhenjiang, a small city on the banks of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu province, will be in the spotlight during the May Day holiday when it plays host to the Changjiang International Music Festival.
More than 20 singers and bands from China and abroad will perform at the festival, including legendary German rock band Scorpions and US singer Demi Lovato. Other headliners include Beijing-based rock singer Luo Qi and Taiwan pop diva Elva Hsiao.
