Beijing Opera is an art form that truly represents China, integrating diverse elements of
Chinese culture: history, mythology, literature and poetry, singing, dancing, acting,
face painting, stage fighting and acrobatics.

This incredibly beautiful and complex art form has fallen upon hard times as young
Chinese people lose interest in their own traditional art forms, handed down for
generations.
