"Colourful China" 多彩中国
2 adult Mandarin beginner classes had a chance to know the Chinese colourful cultures by attending a music session. In 2 hours, we learned about:
1. A brief comparison between the western music and the Chinese folk music's features.
2. 56 Chinese ethnic groups. We had a quick look through a few major minorities' folk songs, costumes, locations, religious, etc.
3. We also learned a Tibetan folk style song called The Himalayas. 
Watch our singing video by clicking the picture below.

Below photos were taken during the lesson. Do you know who is in Han race costume? and who is in Mongolian's? in Xin Jiang Uyghur's? in Tibetan costume?
