Live: A glimpse of life in Shanghai's Fengjing Ancient Town

Nestled in Shanghai's Jinshan District, Fengjing Ancient Town is a national 4A scenic spot and "Southwest Gateway" of Shanghai, straddling the historic Wu-Yue border. With a history spanning over 1,500 years, it was formally established as a town in the Yuan Dynasty. The town boasts crisscrossing waterways, 52 ancient bridges (including the 700-year-old Yuan-era Zhihe Bridge) and well-preserved Ming-Qing architecture. It is the birthplace of Jinshan peasant painting, earning it the title "Home of Chinese Folk Painting." Join our live for an authentic glimpse of traditional water town life amid Shanghai's dynamism.

The 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) takes place from November 5 to 10 in east China's Shanghai. Stay tuned with CGTN's coverage on this event.
