Australian cultural envoys forge new links with Guangxi
A 12–member Australian cultural delegation, comprising artists and musicians, visited the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region between July 24 and Aug 1.
Organized by the China Cultural Centre in Sydney with the support of the Guangxi Culture and Tourism Department, the visit took participants to various Guangxi cities including Guilin, Nanning and Chongzuo.
The delegation explored the region's popular scenic areas, such as Lijiang River, Longji terraced fields, Guihai Stele Forest, and Detian Waterfall, and was treated to Guangxi's renowned outdoor live performances such as Impression Liu Sanjie, in which the Lijiang River serves as the stage.
In addition, Australian musicians and artists also held meetings with representatives from local cultural institutions such as Guangxi Arts University and Guangxi Museum of Nationalities for in-depth exchanges.
Delegates expressed deep admiration for Guangxi's natural beauty and rich ethnic culture and promised to actively promote cultural exchange between China and Australia through cooperation projects.
The visit was held with the aim to strengthen cultural links between Australia and Guangxi, showcase Guangxi's unique charm, enhance Australian understanding of Chinese culture, and explore new chances for cultural and artistic exchanges, according to the organizers.
