Weaving a new future for a Zhuang village

Jingui village, located in Futang township, Lianshan Zhuang and Yao autonomous county, Guangdong, buzzed with activity on a spring morning as busloads of tourists arrived.
Ji Qiyu, a young entrepreneur, greeted and guided visitors in his neat Zhuang ethnic costume. Villagers welcomed tourists with high-quality agricultural products, while many visitors eagerly tasted traditional Zhuang and Yao dishes. Others tried their hand at Zhuang brocade weaving. Before departing, many purchased specialty products as souvenirs.
The ancient Zhuang ethnic village has undergone significant changes in recent years — houses have been renovated, roads are now clean and well-maintained, and villagers have gained multiple sources of income.
