Amazing photos from this year's UK Chinese Dragon Boat Festival in Salford, Greater Manchester! 🐉📸

The Business Confucius Institute was delighted to support our long-standing partner, Leeds New Vision Education Chinese School, as they took part in one of the UK's biggest celebrations of Chinese culture.

From the impressive Hakka-style Qilin (Chinese Unicorn) Dance – performed by the only team of its kind in West Yorkshire – to a beautiful Guzheng solo by University of Leeds student Lijun Zhang, the festival was a fantastic showcase of traditional Chinese arts and culture.

Curious to learn more about the performances, the festival, and how Leeds community organisations helped bring Chinese culture to thousands of visitors?
