Chengdu Festival

I came across this one a few weeks ago in Chengdu which should be interesting. It's the first annual China Chengdu International Intangible Culture Festival from May 23-June 10.

Not exactly sure what it is, but it's always fun to go to a festival in its first year to see how it works out.

September Gong Fu Festival

It's not too soon, but in September there will be a large gong fu (Kung Fu) festival in Henan, a few hours away from Shaolin Temple.

China Zhengzhou International Shaolin Wushu Festival is held every year. This year it will be September 20-24.

The three week festival finished today in Chengdu. Some of the main ventures might have proved to be a bit far and difficult for any non-speaking-Chinese visitor to the Sichuan captial.

The Chengdu Weekly Newspaper covered the events fairly well ...
