Sing about the splendor of the city through songDepicting the landscape and humanities of Quzhou with musical notes, the ancient city is an ever-changing melody.

The vigorous agitation belongs to Jianglang Mountain's world natural heritage. Mount Danxia's three-stone tower at an altitude of 500 meters above the mountain peak and is the tallest and most majestic upright red layer mountain and the deepest valley with its striking shape, called "National Danxia First Mountain."

Dignified and deep belongs to the 28 ancient towns. The first town from Zhejiang in Min, known as "Fengxi Suoyao", has quietly stood for more than 1000 years. It still retains a great deal of inherited folk art and is a living monument to explore the culture of Zhejiang and Min.

Literary elegance belongs to the Confucius Nanzong Temple. It is one of only two Confucius temples in the country, and Quzhou Confucius Nanzong Temple is known as "Rational Nankong". "Southeast Land", travels through more than 800 years and brings people back to the profound connotations of Confucianism.

Unrestrained like Longmen Canyon, gently sing of this land of idyllic beauty that is full of simplicity and calm. At the 2018 First Quzhou International Ancient City Folk Music Festival, Quzhou's unique landscapes will be expressed in the form of folk songs to show the city's temperament and style. Now, this quill is passed to the hands of the world; all wait to see how the ancient city of Quzhou will be interpreted.
