BEIJING, June 29, 2022 /Xinhua=KYODO JBN/--

The "Hinggan League - Acer mono" Cup World Savanna Photography Exhibition

kicked off in Beijing on the afternoon of June 28.

The exhibition is co-sponsored by China Photographers Association, the Cultural

Transmission Center of the China Foreign Languages Publishing Administration,

Inner Mongolian Foundation of Literary and Art Circles, and the Publicity

Department of the CPC Hinggan League Committee. This photography exhibition

will focus on curating public submissions of photos capturing the ecological

protection achievements of this internationally common vegetation type that is

the savanna, in doing so facilitating the joint construction of a beautiful

home where mankind and nature can coexist harmoniously across the world,

according to the Organizing Committee of the "Hinggan League - Acer mono" Cup

World Savanna Photography Exhibition.

The opening ceremony also displayed some of the excellent photos curated in the

2021 iteration, vividly displaying the beauty of Acer mono across the seasons,

telling touching stories about Hinggan League's efforts to safeguard ecological

security in northern China and build a beautiful China. The photography

exhibition will last for a month, and works will be exhibited in Happy Valley

in Beijing, Tianjin and other places successively.

Hinggan League is located in the northeast of Inner Mongolia in China, where

Acer mono trees cover an area of about 666.7 km2 in the vast savanna. Every

autumn, the maple-like leaves of Acer mono turn fiery-red. This enchanting

natural beauty has earned both Hinggan League and its Acer mono species a high

reputation in Inner Mongolia, as proven by the saying, which goes, "visit Alxa

League's Populus euphratica forests in the west, and enjoy the view of Hinggan

League's Acer mono trees in the east".

Over the recent years, Hinggan League has been vigorously pushing the

development of ecological civilization, while also actively exploring a new

path of high-quality development by giving priority to ecology and pursuing

green development. For these endeavors Hinggan League has won such honors as

National Unity and Progress Demonstration League of China, National Ecological

Civilization Development Demonstration League, and Base for the Innovative

Practice of "Lucid Waters and Lush Mountains Are Invaluable Assets".
