Ancient beauty of falconry protected

Wings spanned, a falcon prepares to fly from a man's hand during the founding ceremony of an association aimed at protecting the ancient skill in Yulou village, Northeast China's Jilin province, Sept 3. Originating from the Nvzhen people, ancestors of Manchu ethnic group, falconry has become a provincial intangible cultural heritage in Jilin. Some 300 local households from the Manchu ethnic group still have the skill. [Sun Zhijun/Asianewspoto]
