With abundant bamboo resources, Chishui City in Southwest China's mountainous Guizhou Province has set up bamboo weaving workshops in recent years and recruited craft masters to teach relocated women how to make bamboo weaving products for free. This move has turned traditional handicraft into popular products, and guided locals to get rid of poverty.
