Interesting fact

The Yangge Dance coin was designed by Chinese artist Wu Xiaoling, who is known for her work in traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. The coin's design features a group of dancers performing the Yangge Dance, a traditional Chinese folk dance that originated in the Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD). The dance is characterized by its lively and dynamic movements, which are said to represent the joy and vitality of life. I hope you find this fact interesting!
