A woman of the Wa ethnic group cuts a pattern before weaving at Ximeng Impression Weaving Experience Workshop in Yangluo Village of Wa Autonomous County of Ximeng, southwest China's Yunnan Province, May 28, 2019. Wa people in Yunnan is an ethnic group that lives mainly on agriculture. Many ancient cultures and traditions are well preserved in the ethnic group. Partially supported by the local government, Ximeng Impression Weaving Experience Workshop provides the locals with opportunities of learning weaving techniques and selling products of a great variety of hand-woven clothing, including folk costumes, handbags, capes, bedding, blankets, table runners and so on. New weaving techniques and patterns would help local people to generate a supplementary income. (Xinhua/Yang Zongyou)
