The Colorful Guizhou 2015 Cultural and Creative Industries Fair has opened to the public on Friday in Guiyang, capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province.

The fair combines local intangible cultural heritage items and creative cultural products. It attracted more than 130 exhibitors.

To help visitors better experience intangible culture, the organizing committee has set up a 2,400-square-meter exhibition hall, which is the country's first provincial-level comprehensive intangible cultural heritage exhibition hall.

There are 85 national-level intangible cultural heritage items and 561 provincial-level items in Guizhou province, according to organizers of the fair.

More than 20 national-level and provincial-level inheritors demonstrate intangible cultural heritage skills at the fair and teach visitors crafts and skills, such as how to make Yuping bamboo flutes and sing the "grand song” of the Dong ethnic group.
