The jointly produced work of Yangcheng Evening News and the Publicity Department of the CPC Foshan Municipal Committee, "Foshan in Classical Texts", compiled by Yangcheng Evening News Foshan Multimedia Communication Center, will officially meet readers. The book not only records the anecdotes and historical allusions of famous people in Foshan but also incorporates popular traditional Chinese-style comics of the present time.

This book features eight major themes and 27 articles, including Foshan charm, Guangzhou-Foshan kinship, intangible cultural heritage preservation, legendary figures, the city of martial arts, the melodious Cantonese culture, the southern pottery capital, and the hometown of traditional Chinese medicine. How will the profound and obscure historical allusions collide with the interesting and innovative comics of the Generation Z? Let's take a sneak peek together.

Foshan charm

The cultural treasures distilled from the river of a thousand years of history, including Mulberry plot-fish ponds, Lingnan charm, the righteous path of humanity, and Shunde delicacy, immerse people in the unique charm of Foshan.

Guangzhou-Foshan kinship

There are no two cities as closely connected and deeply rooted as Guangzhou and Foshan. After all, thousands of years ago, Guangzhou and Foshan were once a family.

Intangible cultural heritage preservation

Foshan, renowned as one of the "Four Famous Towns in China", not only boasts a long history shaped by changing times but also preserves a splendid intangible cultural heritage that embodies the vibrant culture of the Lingnan people.

Legendary figures

We can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the legendary lives of famous figures like Lun Wenxu, Kang Youwei, Zou Boqi, and Huang Songjian, and better understand the hometown, Foshan, that has profoundly influenced their lives.

City of martial arts

If you want to know how fast Wong Fei-hung's shadowless kicks are, how powerful Yip Man's three major fist techniques (bong sao, tan sao, and fook sao) in Wing Chun are, and why Bruce Lee created Jeet Kune Do, why not step into this realm? Delve into the martial arts world and learn about Foshan, the city of Kungfu, with keen appreciation.

Melodious Cantonese opera

What kind of charm did the once immensely popular Cantonese opera "top actors" possess? Follow our footsteps and uncover the long-hidden stories behind the scenes.

Southern Pottery Capital

From the Ming Dynasty's Zhengde period (1506-1521) to the present day, the kilns here have been continuously ablaze. Despite enduring storms, Shiwan continues to prosper because of its ceramics. Seeing is believing! Come and witness the past and present of the Southern Pottery Capital.

Hometown of traditional Chinese medicine

With medicine and martial arts sharing common origins, it is no surprise that both martial arts experts and the disciples of Cantonese opera inevitably face injuries in the world of martial arts. In this regard, Foshan's abundance of pharmacies, surpassing even rice shops, comes as no surprise.
