This year's "Flowers in May" features a series of diverse programs, such as combining stage performances with campus life.
A gala completely directed and performed by students. And unlike traditional galas, this year's "Flowers in May" features a series of diverse programs, such as combining stage performances with campus life.
The show "Fly to space" is performed by the Beijing University of Technology, a reflection of the student's dreams of aviation.
Students from China's ethnic minorities are also represented, showcasing unique elements of their local culture. Taiwan's Amis ethnic group performs their new version of a traditional folk song called "Diu Diu Tong", meaning "Tossing Coins".
Foreign students from several countries also participate. A special dance called "When Girls Meet Russian Dolls" performed by Chinese and Russian students mixes dance elements from both countries. Traditional Chinese paper-cuttings appear on traditional wooden Russian dolls, giving a cultural symbol of Russia a tinge of Chinese flavour.
Wrapping up the two hour gala is the recital of a poem expressing the dreams of modern college students. A finale, performed by all of the students, displays their deep affection for their country.
Now in its third year, the Youth Day gala continues to inspire college students all over China.
