Luocheng-Shenzhen Experimental Primary School in Luocheng Mulao autonomous county, Hechi carried out classes on traditional paper-cutting of the Mulao ethnic group on July 6 to teach students more about this autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage under the guidance of experienced teachers.

In recent years, many schools in Luocheng have actively conducted classes on traditional culture and skills, organizing teachers, inheritors, and folk artists to introduce ethnic culture and ethnic sports into schools, such as paper cutting, embroidery, ancient songs, bamboo balls, and ethnic dances. These classes are a part of efforts to ensure that the unique culture of ethnic groups will be passed down and developed.
