#TheGreatBeautyofGuangdong A significant traditional Chinese festival, Dragon Boat Festival, is approaching. Foreign residents of the Overseas Personnel Management Service Center of the Huafa Community in Zhuhai experienced activities such as making zongzi and traditional handicrafts for the festival on June 17. The locals displayed their skills of wrapping a traditional meat zongzi in just a few seconds during the activities. They first folded bamboo leaves into a cone, filled it with sticky rice and pork belly and then folded the leaves together to close the cone, and finally secured the zongzi’s shape with twins. "Amazing!", the foreigners exclaimed as they watched the smooth and skillful process of making zongzi.
