All ethnic groups have jointly created the splendid Chinese culture.There are not only a large number of works reflecting the creative endeavors and diverse life of various ethnic groups,but also the creations of various ethnic authors.Among the Chinese items in-cluded in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity,ethnic minorities' contributions account for one third. |
