Members of a family of Lisu ethnic group work together to make cloth in an old way in a village in Dechang county, Southwest China’s Sichuan province, June 10, 2015. The ethnic group has a tradition of making cloth with Cannabis sativa, an annual herbaceous plant, through tens of time-consuming steps. As living standards improve, the practice is losing its appeal among the young generation, who also increasingly don’t speak their own language. (Photo: China News Service/Gao Han)
