A rich cultural tourism experience is being offered by Jinwan District during a carnival that includes games, folk art, aviation, nutrition, and kayaking during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday week.

To begin with, the 2019 Jinwan Intangible Cultural Heritage Skill Demonstration Competition will be held at By-Health Transparent Factory on Xinghan Road (星汉路) of Sanzao Town on Friday, Sept 13. There, 247 participants will pit their artistry in Sanzao Weaving, Sanzao Lion Dance, and Dingjiawan Tea Refreshments against all comers.

Also at By-Health, reservations can be made up to Sept 21 for a free visit to the Nutrition Exploratorium, which is under trial operation. The facility is the world's first mixed-use museum for nutrition-related education, recreation, and health testing relying on cutting-edge technology.
