Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is the autonomous region with the largest population of ethnic minorities in China, with multiple ethnic groups such as Zhuang, Yao, Miao, and Dong who have lived there for generations. 

Throwing embroidered balls is a traditional sport that Guangxi people enjoy, carrying a profound folk heritage. In Zhuang culture, embroidered ball is a symbol of love. The way of throwing the embroidered ball is very simple, making it suitable for people of all ages. Now it has been turned into a competition involving high poles and baskets, in which everyone can participate as athletes.

At present, the development model of Jingxi embroidered ball has shifted from from a traditional small-scale development model to market-oriented and industrialized development model. Nowadays, Jingxi embroidered ball, as a local typical tourist souvenir, has been sold to all over the world.
