     Liaoning has the largest population of Manchu people in China, who mainly dwell in Kuandian Manchu Autonomous County 宽甸满族自治县 in eastern Dandong Prefecture 丹东市, a region that borders North Korea. Since the 1980s, ethnic minorities have gained much more room for self-expression and there have been many attempts to restore Manchurian ethnic culture, including establishing Manchu-language schools and reviving Manchu rituals. Many obsolete cultural attributes that are significant for legitimizing an ethnic group in China have been adapted by the group to reinforce the previously weakened Manchu identity. For instance, in 2015, Shenyang Music Conservatory established the first music program in the province-level intangible cultural heritage project and conducted fieldwork in Kuandian to observe Manchurian shamanic rituals.
