Traditional Han clothing and the Great Wall are two Chinese cultural icons.

On April 11, the two came together as 21 married couples celebrated a traditional Chinese wedding ceremony.

Wearing Hanfu, clothing like that worn by the Han ethnic people in the centuries spanning the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Period (2852 BC to 2070 BC) to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the couples participated in the ceremony during the 4th Jinshanling Great Wall Apricot Blossom Festival.
