Ten out of 25 national intangible cultural heritage items originating in Hainan are preserved in Binglanggu Valley, including the world’s largest dragon quilt of the Li minority, as well as tree bark clothes.
 
Organizers say the event is intended to showcase the progress in protecting intangible cultural items and artifacts.
