Jinan expo to highlight richness of intangible cultural heritage

The seventh China Intangible Cultural Heritage Expo is set to take place in Jinan, East China's Shandong province, between Aug 25 and 29.

With the theme "connect modern life, shine with glamour", the biennial expo is going to shine a spotlight on the achievements in protecting China's intangible cultural heritage since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

It will also highlight the important role that intangible cultural heritage has played in the rejuvenation of the country's rural areas and the construction of a cultural belt along the Grand Canal.
