Visitors tour the museum for the late lyricist Zhuang Nu at the international intangible cultural heritage town in Bishan District, Chongqing, on May 16, 2021. The legendary lyricist, whose real name was Wang Jingxi, was born in Beijing in 1921 before moving to Taiwan in 1949. He wrote more than 3,000 lyrics spanning over five decades, including numerous for the late Chinese icon Teresa Teng such as "Tian Mi Mi," "Story of the Small Town,” and "See the Chimney Smoke Again." Zhuang married a resident of Chongqing, Zou Lin, in 1992, residing in the mainland city for the greater part of each year. He died in Chongqing in 2016 at the age of 95. [Photo by Ge Yu/CQNEWS.net]
