Interactive mountain festival makes a perfect urban getaway
The 38th Beijing Badachu Chongyang (Double Ninth) Mountain Festival opened on Wednesday at Badachu Park, blending traditional customs with contemporary wellness activities.
The festival features a vibrant lineup, including an opening ceremony with cultural performances and a hundred-person Taiping Drum show, an intangible cultural heritage art, along with free health screenings.
Interactive activities allow visitors to create personalized "Fortune" or "Longevity" rubbings with golden powder, while elderly guests receive special gifts of Chongyang cakes and chrysanthemum tea.
Adding a playful touch, four costumed characters roam the park to engage children and families in games and photo opportunities, ensuring intergenerational fun.
