This 2022 edition is larger and has more diverse activities than in previous years. It will feature a hot air balloon festival, an international marathon, and a music festival. Visitors will also be treated to performances of traditional music and modern dance, folk games, and calligraphy, among others. A host of talk-shows are also scheduled, focusing on green tourism, while an exhibition of paintings and urban sketches on the southern economic hub’s symbols and tourist attractions by the Urban Sketcher - a group of professional architects - will be held for the first time. For the festive week, until December 11, tourism companies and accommodation, shopping, and dining services providers have introduced hundreds of discount programmes for both local people and tourists./.
