01:48

In Hebei Province's Wuqiao County, the huge turn of the Grand Canal gives the shoreline an ear-like shape. Throughout history, from the Sui and Tang dynasties onwards, which span over 1,400 years, the waterway has facilitated the spread of the area's unique culture of acrobatics across the world. Today, the China Wuqiao International Circus Festival celebrates this legacy, uniting acrobatic artistry with the Grand Canal's enduring cultural influence.
