How are these puppet goats dancing to the tune of dombra music? Known as Oreteke, this is a traditional puppet performance of the Kazak ethnic group in Altay, Xinjiang. The dombra performer sings while manipulating a wooden puppet goat controlled with strings tied to their finger, allowing the puppet to jump straight up and down on a traditional drum. This local intangible cultural heritage vividly imitates goats frolicking on a cliff. #heritage #wonderfulChina #Xinjiang #Kazak #ethnicgroup #pup
