Yang Zenggui, an inheritor of national intangible heritage, presents a well-made row lantern in Huangyuan County of Xining City, northwest China's Qinghai Province, Jan. 7, 2014. The origin of Huangyuan row lantern, a national intangible heritage, can be traced back to the large and well-lit shop signposts along the street of Huangyuan in the early 18th century in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
