The fifth Guanshanhu tourism and culture festival was held from April 29 in Guanshanhu district of Guiyang, capital city of Southwest China's Guizhou province.

The opening event of the festival included the official launch ceremony, light shows and a cruise carnival which was held in tandem. A large number of revamped retail brands were also unveiled at the launch, to help boost local tourism spending.

As the launch event approached its climax, guests and tourists were invited to move to the nearby Yunshang Fangzhou and CC Park malls to experience a shopping extravaganza set up there.

The festival is themed on "building Guanshanhu with love" and was organized by the Guanshanhu committee of the CPC and the district's administration.

During the Guanshanhu tourism and culture festival, there will be a broad range of fun activities on offer – including a lobster festival, music festival, as well as nighttime physical fitness activities, a summer shopping rush and countryside travel tours.

The aim is to extend a warm welcome to locals and guests from further afield, to have a bright and breezy experience.
