Chinese acrobatics are a favorite art of the Chinese people, with a distinct style evolving from everyday life and work. Despite the advent of dazzling film shows and song－and－dance performances, acrobatics still shines as one of the brightest stars in Chinese culture. With about 2,500 years of history, Chinese acrobatics have won the nation the title of "Kingdom of Acrobatics." For those who want to appreciate authentic folk acrobatics, Wuqiao county in Hebei Province is generally regarded as the cradle of Chinese acrobatics. Acrobatics have played an important role in cultural exchanges between China and the rest of the world. For more than half a century, Chinese acrobatic troupes have toured to warm applause in more than 100 countries and regions throughout the world.
