The Jiuquan dibengzi, a highly popular traditional folk dance, was staged on Feb 3 at the Gansu province's Chinese New Year 2026 intangible cultural heritage promotion and exhibition series Longnan.
Jiuquan recorded a grain-sown area of nearly 1.03 million mu (68,666 hectares) and a total output of 587,100 metric tons in 2025, reaching 101.8 percent and 102 percent of the provincial targets, respectively.
Nestled within Jiuquan, Gansu, lies Aksay — the province's only Kazakh autonomous county. Here, cuisine is more than sustenance; it is a living narrative of nomadic life.
The sixth session of the fifth Jiuyuan Municipal People's Congress and the fifth session of the fifth Jiuyuan Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) opened on Jan 13 and Jan 12, respectively.
