Yunnan’s Longjiang township organized a “fish festival” within several villages. Farmers raise fishes in paddy field to improve the harvest. When autumn comes, the fishes grow up and are ready to be caught. Villagers and visitors come to Baoshan’s Longling county to catch and eat fishes. During the festival, various activities provide tourists with a chance to enjoy rural life and experience the joy of harvest.
