Culture: Festival starts to celebrate harvest

Nadun Festival, celebrated by the Tu ethnic group, falls between the 12th day of the seventh month and the 15th day of the ninth month on the lunar calendar (Aug 22 to Oct 23 this year). The annual festival is often described as the world's longest carnival as it spans two months. Temple fairs are held during the two months to celebrate the harvest. It was inscribed on the country's National List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2006. Visit our website to find out more about the event.
