The Dangtu stage of this national city-linked relay starts at 9:00 on November 14 at the Party Culture Square of Taohua Village in the Daqingshan Li Bai Cultural Tourism Zone, Dangtu County, Maanshan, Anhui. The field is 5,000: a 6 km fun run for 3,000 (untimed, including a parent-child option for one adult and one child) and a 10 km elite challenge for 2,000. Places are first come, first served.
The area is tied to the poet Li Bai. The zone holds a stone memorial archway, the Taibai Stele Forest, the Taibai Shrine and Li Bai's tomb, and the organizers also point to the region as the birthplace of the Thousand Character Classic and home to Dangtu folk songs, a national intangible heritage item. The route runs between green hills and traditional water-town scenery.
