Dragon Boat Festival (or Duanwu Festival) goes beyond Zongzi (sticky rice treats)! LICC host Scarlett teams up with Liza from Belarus to explore fresh ways to celebrate this ancient festival—by learning the art of Chinese knotting from Jin Huimin, representative inheritor of Jin’s Knotting Art, an intangible cultural heritage.
Colorful ropes crossing between fingers, weaving a-thousand-year-old cultural legacy—Liza couldn’t stop marveling, “This is MAGIC!”
From laughter-filled workshops to hands-on crafting, they discover how traditional Chinese knots carry blessings and fortune in every crossing. Who knew ancient traditions could be so trendy?
This Dragon Boat Festival, let’s get on crafting and keep the cultural legacy alive!
