To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a photography exhibition entitled “The Joy Happy Family - the journey taken by China’s 56 Chinese ethnic groups in past years” was held recently in Beijing.

The photo show was jointly organized by the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles (CFLAC) and China Photographers Association with support by China Photo Press, Nationality Pictorial, China Pictorial, and Wangfujing Area Construction and Management Office.

The following photos, selected from the exhibition, are portraits of people from the Buyi ethnic group.
