Move to protect art
Scaffolding has been set up around Migrant Child, an artwork by British artist Banksy in the Italian city of Venice, to protect it. Like most of Banksy's art, it was painted on a wall. The picture draws attention to the difficulties faced by migrants.
Honoring music in Morocco
The city of Essaouira held the Gnaoua and World Music Festival from June 19 to 21, featuring 350 artists from over 10 countries. The festival focuses on Gnaoua music. This kind of music started hundreds of years ago. More than 300,000 people took part in the event.
A gripping finger-pulling contest
About 180 people to part in a finger wrestling contest in Germany last month. Two competitors in traditional clothes hook their middle fingers through a leather loop. Then, they try to pull each other closer. Last year, two men lifted 115-pound stones with their fingers to prepare.
Curious tale of Pu's return
More than 300 years ago, writer Pu Songling penned nearly 500 fantastic short stories.
Now, long after his death in 1715, the celebrated Qing Dynasty novelist is reimagined in a way he never thought of: as a cartoon character looking back on the very stories he once wrote—the main story of the new summer hit Curious Tales of a Temple.
