Guangxi's Baise City Hosts Series of Events to Promote China-Vietnam Cultural Exchanges
NANNING, China, June 6 (Bernama) -- The year 2025 marks the 75th anniversary of China-Vietnam diplomatic ties and the "Year of China-Vietnam Cultural Exchanges." Baise City of Guangxi shares borders with Vietnam and enjoys cultural similarities, with thriving cross-border trade and enduring people-to-people exchanges. In April this year, The People's Government of Baise City hosted a series of heartwarming and down-to-earth cultural exchange activities between China and Vietnam. These events effectively enhanced mutual understanding and friendship between the peoples of both countries, particularly among the younger generation, strengthened people-to-people bonds, and reinforced broader public support.
In Jingxi City, Baise, residents from Cao Bang City, Trung Khanh District, and Ha Quang District of Vietnam's Cao Bang Province, along with domestic and international tourists, participated in the 2025 China-Vietnam Border Residents' San Yue San Festival Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition. Over ten featured activities showcased new chapters of friendship. During the festival, the China-Vietnam Youth Folk Music Concert was held at the ancient opera stage of Jinxiu Ancient Town in Jingxi, where young performers from both countries shared the stage and sang the song "Vietnam-China." The Egret Spring Scenic Area hosted a mountains-and-waters "T-stage show," featuring traditional Jingxi Zhuang costumes and Vietnamese Ao Dai dresses, creating a spectacular "fashion feast" against the picturesque landscape. In the specialty food exhibition area, Vietnamese coffee, Chinese tea, handicrafts, and other distinctive products were on display. At the embroidered ball-tossing event, young participants from both countries engaged in friendly competition using balls specially crafted in Jingxi's Jiuzhou Ancient Town.
