Tribute rice ceremony opens celebrations for farmers' harvest festival
A tribute rice harvest opening ceremony took place recently in Guojiawan Village, southwest China's Guizhou Province, marking the start of celebrations for the upcoming annual Chinese Farmers' Harvest Festival, which falls on September 23.
The event featured a range of lively activities, including a terraced field mini-marathon, rice-harvesting contests, fish-catching games, and a long-table banquet, all drawing throngs of visitors.
Guojiawan's terraced rice is renowned for its "fragrance, glutinous texture, softness, and natural sweetness." First designated as "tribute rice" by the imperial court during the Qing Dynasty's Qianlong era, it boasts a nearly 300-year history. In recent years, the village has leveraged this prestigious brand to build a comprehensive tribute rice industry chain.
