On March 20, we usher in Spring Equinox, one of the 24 solar terms. On this day, day and night are nearly equal in length, with the vibe of spring becoming more evident and the weather getting warmer, making it a great time to fly kites.

The "Beijing's Vibe of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Chinese Solar Terms", a short video series jointly produced by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism and CRI Online, has released its episode of "Spring Equinox". This episode focuses on the Beijing kite-making craftsmanship (Cao style), showing you the graceful charm of this ancient skill and the agile beauty of kites soaring in the sky.
