A series of intangible cultural heritage events will be hosted around the upcoming National Day holiday, to enrich tourism experience and meet the cultural demands of residents and tourists, according to the third quarter media conference by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Hu Yan, deputy director of the ministry's intangible cultural heritage department, said that during the National Day holiday, nearly 1,000 events centered on preserving intangible cultural heritage will be hosted across China, including exhibitions and hands-on experiential activities.

Among these will be an exhibition and performing arts shows in Guangdong province, featuring intangible cultural heritage exchanges between the province and Shandong province. In Fujian province, an exhibition themed on landscape beauty will showcase intangible cultural heritage works created by 75 national and provincial-level representative inheritors.

Intangible cultural heritage will also be highlighted in a series of events aimed at boosting tourism. The Xiaoxitian Temple in Xixian county, Shanxi province, a recently popular tourism attraction featured in video game Black Myth: Wukong, will organize inheritors to showcase their crafts at the site.
