A stilt-walking troupe consisting of eighty members from the Gaobeidian
Stilt Association in Beijing's Chaoyang District was in training on
January 16. The stilt-walking troupe made up of farmers would represent
Beijing and participate in a cultural performance in London to showcase
the customs of Beijing. It would be the first time a Beijing farmers'
amateur troupe travels abroad. Relevant departments in Beijing and in
Chaoyang District held a farewell meeting for troupe members today.
