Xiaogan station: YHCCA went to Hanchuan – once again touching the intangible cultural heritage and Hanchuan First Middle School students danced “Lian Xiang” together to complete the Hanchuan intangible cultural heritage dance “Yiyayo”!

Xiaogan station: YHCCA visited Yunmeng County Museum. Watching their classmates holding their breath and gazing at the thousand-year-old ink marks on the Qin bamboo slips and touching the residual warmth of the bronze in the Chu vessels, they suddenly felt that cultural resonance never needs translation. The laws on the bamboo slips and the totems in the lacquerware all tell of the profoundness of the land of Yunmeng, and the light in the eyes of the teenagers is probably the best answer to the inheritance of civilization…
Xiaogan station: YHCCA went to Yunmeng County…Happy Moment…
Xiaogan station: The intangible cultural heritage scene is so exciting! When the beats of Hubei drums woke up the afternoon in Yunmeng, the characters in the shadow play fluttered on the screen, and the students instantly turned into “little drama fans”. The amazing thing was that the face-changing master flicked his sleeves, causing the whole audience to exclaim! The most surprising thing was the Chinese martial arts performance. The sight of the Chinese teenagers following their master in horse stance made even the Qin bamboo slips in the museum seem to be “thumbs-up” ~ The charm of intangible cultural heritage can really ignite the world in a second.
