Moscow, September 29 /Xinhua/ — The Second Confucius Culture Festival, timed to coincide with the 2576th anniversary of the birth of the ancient Chinese thinker, was held on Sunday at the Park Huaming Chinese Business Center in Moscow.
Opening the event, Zhang Wei, Chargé d'Affaires of the Chinese Embassy in Russia, stated that in recent years, against the backdrop of the high-level development of Chinese-Russian relations, humanitarian exchanges between the two countries have been constantly deepening, and the interest of peoples in each other and in each other's cultures is growing.
"Cultural exchange is a dialogue between hearts, the cornerstone of friendship. We hope that this festival will serve as an opportunity to further advance exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia in various fields, including education, culture, and the arts," he emphasized.
This year, the Confucius Culture Festival's program became even more extensive. Visitors, many of whom were children and teenagers, enjoyed vibrant performances featuring traditional songs and dances, participated in Chinese calligraphy workshops, and recited classic verses from Confucius's works. These events provided a richer understanding of Chinese culture.
The festival featured an exhibition of Chinese calligraphy and painting dedicated to Confucius and his legacy. It featured nearly one hundred works of art on the theme of Confucian culture, including paintings by Russian artists. Artists and calligraphers from Confucius's birthplace—Shandong Province in China—brought exquisite works reflecting Confucius's ideas, demonstrating Chinese culture, and celebrating Sino-Russian friendship.
