WASHINGTON, Sept. 3,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The essence of international
relations is rooted in the mutual affection of their peoples. On
August 31, Guizhou made a prominent appearance at the
22nd Washington Chinese Culture Festival, where the
"Mountain Park Province • Vibrant Guizhou" cultural tourism
promotion emerged as a standout highlight.
As a hallmark of annual Sino-American cultural exchange, the
Washington Chinese Culture Festival, since its inception in 1999,
has illuminated the richness of Chinese heritage for American
audiences and forged enduring bonds between the two peoples. This
vibrant celebration of cultural diplomacy consistently attracts
tens of thousands of American residents and global visitors each
year.
Along Washington's Pennsylvania
Avenue, a compelling exhibition of over 80 photographs showcasing
Guizhou's diverse splendor drew
considerable admiration. The majestic Huangguoshu Waterfall, the
serene waters of Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot, and the
mist-enveloped Fanjingshan all captured the awe-inspiring natural
beauty of Guizhou. The exhibit
also highlighted the region's prehistoric culture, revolutionary
legacy, Yangming Culture, ethnic traditions, and Tunpu Culture.
Notable features such as the "World Bridge Museum," "CHINA DATA
VALLEY," and the "China Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio
Telescope (CHINA FAST)" evoked
wonder and intrigue. Guizhou's
remarkable allure has earned it a prestigious spot on the
New York Times' list of the "52
Places to Go in the World."
At this year's Washington Chinese Culture Festival, the
Guizhou delegation's display was a
focal point of interest. Beyond the captivating photo exhibition,
notable highlights included the Guizhou Intangible Cultural
Heritage Exhibition Area, the "Village BA" Cultural and Creative
Integration Zone, the "Guizhou Tea Workshop" Guizhou Tea Culture
Exhibit, and the Inbound Tourism Promotion and Information Booth.
Ambassador Xie Feng, Embassy of
the People's Republic of China in
the United States of America,
remarked during his visit to the Guizhou Cultural and Tourism
Promotion Exhibition, "Guizhou has
positioned itself at the forefront of Sino-American cultural
exchanges, playing a significant and pioneering role."
Long Hui, Deputy Director of the
Culture, Sports, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau of
Qiandongnan Prefecture passionately presented Guizhou's "Village BA" and extended a warm
invitation to the audience: "We cordially invite everyone to
immerse themselves in the unparalleled experiences of Guizhou and Qiandongnan."
In the Guizhou Tourism Promotion Area, numerous visitors engaged
with the display, actively seeking information on traveling to
Guizhou. In response to North
American market interests, Guizhou
has unveiled an array of international travel packages, featuring
spectacular destinations such as the Huangguoshu Waterfall, Zhijin
Caves, and the Original Ecological Villages of the Miao and Dong
Ethnic Groups in Qiandongnan.
