Children have fun with shadow puppets

Children learn to play shadow puppets with the guide of local artisans in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia autonomous region, July 21. Shadow puppets are flat images of a human or animal shape attached to thin sticks. Performers use shadow puppets to tell a story by moving them in front of a light to make shadows on a screen. The event allowed local children to experience the fun of the traditional Chinese folk art. [Photo/nmgnews.com.cn]
