Live: How people shop for Chinese New Year in rural areas

Shopping is an important part of #ChineseNewYear preparations. Back in the old days, people would go to big outdoor fairs in an activity called "ganji" in #Chinese to buy everything from new clothes to candy. With the proliferation of online shopping and supermarkets, these outdoor fairs now mostly only exist in the countryside, where rural residents go for cheaper prices and urban dwellers go for the experience. Join CGTN's reporter Chen Mengfei as she brings her wallet to visit the Hongqi fair, one of the biggest of its kind in northeast #China's #Liaoning Province. #SpringFestival2024
