The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is home to a rich tapestry of ethnic groups, including the vibrant Mongol community. Recently, a team of journalists from 11 Arab countries journeyed to the Bortala Mongol Autonomous Prefecture in northern Xinjiang to immerse themselves in the local culture.
During their visit, the journalists engaged in lively exchanges with Mongol performers, experiencing firsthand the traditional music that has been passed down through generations. This cultural exchange not only highlights the unique heritage of the Mongol people but also fosters international understanding and appreciation.
For those interested in a deeper dive into the traditional sounds of Mongolia, Li Jingjing's vlog offers an intimate look at the performances and the stories behind the music. This initiative underscores the importance of preserving and sharing cultural traditions in our increasingly connected world.
