Poetic China | AI helps revive ancient poetic charm at Qingming Festival

Qingming, as one of the "24 solar terms", is a traditional ancestor worship festival. Literally meaning "clear and bright", Qingming heralds a season of rising temperature and increasing rainfall. As Qingming tomb-sweeping often takes place in suburban areas, it is often accompanied by such activities as outings, feasting and water sports, and many vivid scenes of Qingming Festival have been depicted in ancient Chinese poems.

In this episode of "Poetic China", five foreigners are invited to read Chinese poems on Qingming and a virtual anchor is also introduced to host the program. At the end of the video, you will find a song based on Chinese poem and automatically generated by Suno-AI. Please click the video to feel the charm of ancient Chinese poems.
