30,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Separated by the 30-kilometer-wide Qiongzhou Strait and facing Hainan Island, the Leizhou Peninsula is one of China's three major peninsulas, surrounded by the sea on three sides. Among its cities, Zhanjiang is known as the "Seafood Capital of China." Every year during the first lunar month, villages across western Guangdong, including Zhanjiang, celebrate the "Nianli" festival. It is said that Zhanjiang's Nianli is particularly extravagant, featuring grand feasts with thousands of tables and tens of thousands of guests. Some tables have meal standards reaching several thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan, showcasing seafood feasts that many have never seen before. Beyond the food, the festival is rich in diverse folk traditions. To witness this spectacle, I arrived in one of Zhanjiang’s wealthiest urban villages a few days before the festival. In this tropical coastal city, I wandered around, soaking in the atmosphere and waiting for the grand day of Nianli to broaden my horizons. This episode captures my time exploring Zhanjiang. 0:00Intro 0:51 09:45 15:22 19:06 22:10 24:46 • 100 • 100 • Atlas Explore China • Atlas Explore China • Atlas Explore China • Atlas Explore China • Atlas Explore China Gear: :Lumix DC-S5 :24—105 F4 :Dji mini3 Pro :Dji Pocket3 , / @atlas_explore_china #Chinatravel #China #Travel #Documentary #Chinese # # # # # # # # #
