It is also known as Hui bullfighting (回族斗牛). because it originated among the Hui people. The word guan means throwing, dropping, or tossing, and niu refers to cattle, so guanniu translates literally as 'wrestling with a bull'. Guanniu began in the Yuan Dynasty and originated in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, among the Hui people. Local men would test their strength against bulls weighing as much as 400 kg (880 lb). Contestants must force a bull on the ground with their bare hands within three minutes. Unlike Spanish-style bullfighting, which ends with the killing of the bull, guanniu traditionally ends when the bull is thrown down. On May 23, 2011, Jiaxing Guanniui (嘉兴掼牛) was listed on China's National Intangible Cultural Heritage List.GuanniuActiveGuanniu1101849495guan niúChina44893658Guanniu (simplified Chinese: 掼牛; traditional Chinese: 摜牛; pinyin: guan niú), also known as Chinese bullfighting or Chinese-style bullfighting, is a form of bull-wrestling contest held in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China.
