More Than 20 Activities Planned for the Shanghai Confucius Cultural Festival   2025-10-16

 

 


The 2025 Shanghai Confucius Cultural Festival offers a cultural feast for tourists, featuring diversified activities that integrate traditional culture with modern experiences.

The cultural festival will last until the end of October, during which more than 20 series of activities will be launched, including the pop-up cultural activities on Zhouqiao Ancient Street and the traditional Chinese medicine tourism route.

Among these, an international cultural exchange project invited foreign teachers and students to spend traditional festivals together, visit Jiading's landmarks and experience intangible cultural heritage skills, building a bridge for cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries through experiences and dialogues.

During a garden tour, performers replicated the elegant scene of the four great Confucian scholars Cheng Jiasui, Tang Shisheng, Li Liufang and Lou Jian delivering lectures in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).

Outside the Confucius Temple, there is an art installation exhibition of the 10 disciples of Confucius presented in modern design language, showcasing the elegance of Yan Hui, Zigong, Ran Boniu and the other 10 sages among Confucius' disciples.

Parades featuring fluttering clothes and graceful postures take place on Zhouqiao Ancient Street, accompanied by the resonant sounds of Jiangnan sizhu, a unique style of traditional Chinese instrumental music from the area south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

Cultural and creative products such as embroidery paintings, Confucian Temple-themed notebooks and Chinese herbal tea stimulated the public's interest.

The "Confucius Culture Challenge" also attracted visitors. The participants completed five interesting tasks, including landmark check-ins and costume-changing experiences, experiencing Chinese traditional culture in the game.
