Making an Impression in Malacca

IT’S a chilly night at Yangshuo, China, with late autumn winds blowing and a temperature of just 7°C; and it looks like it could rain at any moment. Yet more than 3,000 tourists brave the conditions to throng an open-air theatre fronting the Li River just to watch the Impression Liu Sanjie show.

This large-scale performance by 250 fishermen and 300 artistes – as well as some well-behaved cattle – is a combination of folk songs and dances depicting the life of ethnic minorities in scenic Guangxi Province.
