A grand Fish Feast Festival was held to attract tourists and celebrate a bountiful life in Piaoli town of Longsheng county, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on Tuesday.

Piaoli town is located at the intersection of Guizhou, Hunan, and Liuzhou city in Guangxi. Local people have relied on fishing for generations, leading to a strong fish culture. Every year on Oct 10, fishermen hold a grand Fish Feast Festival to celebrate a bountiful and happy life.

At the annual event, people can participate in the Fish Sashimi Contest, join the muddy water fish catching contest and enjoy entertainment.
