On the evening of Aug 24, the "Guilin Gexu" nighttime cultural renewal music concert ignited the central square of Guilin with performances by the Muguizi band and special guests such as Yan Bin and Li Zhi, who brought a variety of classic songs to the live audience.
The enjoyment of such cultural activities by the public, in the view of Yan, is a reflection of the unique temperament of the people of Guilin, nurtured by its distinct landscapes. He said, "No matter how we sing on stage, the audience interacts with us very well. I felt very relaxed during today's performance."
Surrounding the concert were local Guilin delicacies, Guilin intangible cultural heritage products, and handmade craft markets, satisfying the audience's ears, eyes, and tongues. The "Guilin Gexu" music concert has become popular among both locals and tourists for weekend night outings.
In the future, the music concert will continue to feature bands, singers, electronic DJs, and pop music artists from both inside and outside the region, further driving the development of Guilin's tourism industry and night economy and culturally empowering Guilin as a world-class tourist destination.
