00:00Chenzhou, also known as Chenzhou Emporium of the World in Songyuan, China is a city in Fujian province in China.
00:09In the 44th session of the World Heritage Committee, this city was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
00:16Because of this, it was visited by the RSP. What are the tourist spots or heritage sites that were visited there?
00:22Let's all watch this.
00:25China is made up of more than 700 cities where each place has its own story and growth.
00:34One of them is Chenzhou, which is known for its history and rich culture.
00:40And aside from their historical sites, there are also many cultural activities that can be done in the area.
00:47For those who are fond of arts and music, Jiangyuan Traditional Music Studio is one of the must-visit places in Chenzhou.
00:55Because of this, you can watch their performances of string puppetry and Nanyin music.
01:04One thousand years ago, string puppetry started and there are currently 36 strings for various movements.
01:13That's why it is considered to be one of the most difficult and complicated forms of art.
01:19When it comes to music, Nanyin music style is one of the most popular styles in the studio.
01:25It uses various Chinese instruments with vocals and it is considered as a living fossil in the Asian Chinese music industry.
01:35You should also not miss the Kung Fu show in Chenzhou Shaolin Temple.
01:40You can watch the amazing Kung Fu styles such as Shaolin Boxing and Shaolin Stick.
01:47Another set of must-visit sites are the museums that show the history and cultural heritage of Chenzhou.
01:55One of them is the Chenzhou Maritime Museum that contains artifacts that show that the city is the center of overseas trade.
02:04And it has an important role as the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road.
02:08That's why it is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
02:12Another place where Chenzhou is proud of is the Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum.
02:18Where you can see different kinds of handicrafts such as paper weaving, wood and puppet carving
02:24that contributes a lot to their culture and traditions.
02:28So for example, carving paper is an education to younger generation.
02:34And it digs into our education and it shows up when we are adults.
02:41So we are patient, we are very nice to people.
02:45In order to feel the culture of Chenzhou, one of the interactive activities that should be tried is lantern making.
02:53It is considered as a trademark of Chinese culture and has an important role in handicrafts.
02:59Nowadays, different colors, patterns and materials are used in making lanterns.
03:05And it continues to thrive as part of the culture and identity of China.
03:10Another thing that should not be left out of the bucket list is the visit to the Xunmei Ceramic Cultural Life Pavilion.
03:18Here, you can experience the ceramic making that is taught from scratch using clay and ceramic painting
03:25where there is no limit to your creativity.
03:28You can also see different types of ceramics from garden displays, snow globes and cartoon characters.
03:35Chenzhou is known as one of the most famous when it comes to pottery production.
03:40And sometimes it has become one of the three ancient capitals of Chinese porcelain.
03:45These are just a few of the things to visit and do in Chenzhou.
03:49Each place and activity has a unique story about their traditions and culture.
03:56It is amazing that despite the rapid change of the time,
04:00they are still doing it while taking care of and preserving the beauty of their cultural heritage.
