Some African youth representatives recently visited villages in Jiaxing, east China's Zhejiang Province. They had hands-on experience in the making of painting on water chestnut, sugar cake and other intangible cultural heritages.
Through doing so, they have caught a glimpse of China's rural revitalization.
They visited a farmers' painting exhibition hall in Linglongwan. Painting on water chestnut is a traditional local craft as the place abounds with them. Water chestnut here is not only food, but also good canvas.
Sugar cake, also known as "Tang Gao," is a traditional snack here. The industrialization of local specialty food production helps the residents achieve prosperity.
