The 2025 Old Nanning Flavors Discovering Event and Nanning Shuijie Street Intangible Cultural Heritage Cuisine Exhibition for the Spring Festival were held on January 22. After being listed as a World Intangible Culture Heritage, the Spring Festival is about to welcome its first celebration. When this Spring Festival encounters intangible cultural heritage cuisine, old Nanning’s flavors are unfolded. Shuijie Street, an old street carrying memories and emotions of Nanning’s residents, tells its stories through food.
At the exhibition, various intangible cultural heritage cuisines and special purchases for the Spring Festival were shown by members of the Shuijie Cuisine Association. All kinds of traditional foods, such as pressed rice noodles, zongzi, rice dumplings, rice worms, and sesame & peanut paste, that carry residents’ memories and emotions of the old Nanning, were put on stands. What a feast for residents!
