Mojiang Hani Autonomous County in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has extended a global invitation for travelers to join its twin-themed celebration during the upcoming May Day holiday.
A press conference for the 20th Mojiang International Twins Festival along the Tropic of Cancer was held on March 25 in Kunming. The event will take place from May 1 to May 5 in Mojiang, Pu’er City.
Mojiang is China’s only Hani autonomous county and is known as the “Home of Twins.” Data cited by organizers show the county is home to more than 1,200 pairs of twins, with a twin birth rate of 8.7 per thousand—more than four times the global average. The phenomenon has become a defining cultural symbol of the county.
Launched in 2005, the festival has grown into an internationally recognized cultural event. Organizers said it has attracted more than 18,000 pairs of twins from over 40 countries and regions, and generated more than 4.4 million total visits. The festival has also generated nearly 2.4 billion yuan in tourism revenue and received multiple honors, including recognition as one of the most internationally influential ethnic festivals.
In recent years, Mojiang has enriched its cultural tourism offerings by developing signature experiences such as the “Yunnan twin show” and “Yunnan village barbecue,” forming a diversified tourism model that integrates performances, cuisine, and rural leisure activities.
This year’s festival will feature a series of events including twin parades, ethnic carnivals, music and dance activities, and local food experiences. Visitors can enjoy traditional Hani festivities as well as distinctive banquets showcasing regional flavors.
Local officials said the 20th anniversary will be used to further enhance the “twin culture” brand, promote cultural and tourism integration, and support Mojiang’s development as a unique destination for cultural tourism and green industries.
