"I just joined this program couple of weeks ago but I have already mastered some movements. It's a huge accomplishment for me," Egana said.

Now, Kunqu Opera has enthusiasts worldwide and it's Qiandeng town's strategy to gather them and involve them in the promotion and inheritance of Kunqu culture. Meanwhile, a series of Kunqu-themed tour routes have been launched to enhance the sightseeing experience and the influence of this world cultural heritage.
