This photo taken on Dec. 13, 2024 shows a color painting on the wall of an old house in an ancient Hakka village near Shangwei Village, a Hakka village with a history of more than 400 years, in Longhua District of Shenzhen, south China's Guangdong Province. Since 2017, the local government has introduced nearly 100 artistic talents to Shangwei Village to revitalize the ancient village with arts on the basis of originality and cultural creativity. The village still preserves five century-old Diaolou defensive houses and nearly 50 Hakka old houses, with artist studios, museums, and exhibition halls dotted all over. Various cultural activities have been held and attracted nearly 70,000 participants. The village acts as an inspiring cultural example and has brought significant changes to other ancient Hakka villages nearby. (Xinhua/Wu Zhizun)
