China is a multi-ethnic country with 56 distinct ethnic groups, each rich in unique traditions. When the first snow dusts the deep mountains, autumn leaves blush red, and the sun begins its return—when grains ripen and harvest fills the granaries—it is time for the Yi Ethnic New Year.

This is not a one-day festivity, but a grand ceremony lasting several days, blending sacrificial rites, celebrations, feasts, and traditional competitions.

Would you like to experience the Yi New Year? The vitality flowing from its ancient traditions is enough to touch the heart of every witness.
