Culture blossoms at Beijing Garden Expo Park
This summer, Beijing Garden Expo Park is abloom. Not just because of the ongoing 2019 International Horticultural Exhibition, but it was also radiant with florescent adolescence, as thousands of festively-dressed teenagers gathered, conversed and performed as part of a recent Joy Dancing Beijing cultural and art exchange.
Among them was Dombzhub Tsering, a Tibetan high school boy. "By attending the festival, I have encountered a lot of dance styles I have never seen before and I have learned much about dances from different countries and their cultures," he says.
He and his teammates at the Remeng Keba ensemble from Northwest China's Qinghai province opened the event on Aug 10 by performing The Great Mountain Peak, a folk dance featuring original choreography that illustrates a local ritual to offer sacrifices to the mountain gods.
