The Guiyang stop of the Guizhou Luoguo Festival was unveiled on the Qingyun Pedestrian Street in Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province, on Nov 19.

Luoguo is a local snack in which ingredients such as seafood, chicken, duck, cattle, sheep, and vegetables are fried in pans. People take the cooked food from the pan and dip it into special chili powder or sauce.

Guiyang is the biggest luoguo sales and consumption hub in Guizhou, and this time it was directed by the Guizhou Provincial Department of Commerce and organized by Guiyang bureau of commerce.

The festival, combining luoguo tasting, interesting interactions and on-site performances, was aimed at increasing people's interest in the traditional snack.

The event was supported by many local luoguo business operators, and food bloggers, residents and tourists were invited to eat luoguo placed on a long table.

The festival supports the standardized and large-scale development of the luoguo industry and will run until Dec 31.
