Baotou school hosts coming-of-age ceremony

Students of First Machinery No 1 Senior High School attend a Confucian-style coming-of-age ceremony, July 5. The ceremony, which is called Ji Li (for girls) and Guan Li (for boys), honors people who have turned 20, and provides an opportunity to wear traditional dress. Girls can follow typical Ji Li practices like wearing their hair in buns and attaching hairpins. [Photo/Baotou Daily]
