Beijing, March 24 (Xinhua) — From March 18 to 22, a cultural exchange event for senior citizens from China and Russia was held in Harbin, capital of Heilongjiang Province in northeast China, according to Partners magazine.

During the event, the Russian delegation visited several facilities in Harbin, including the health center on Taiyangdao Island (Sun Island) and the Harbin Ankang International Senior Center, to learn about the organization of social services for the elderly. The parties engaged in an in-depth exchange of experiences on health service models and the organization of cultural and leisure activities for senior citizens.

At the master class, the Chinese participants demonstrated traditional arts and crafts, such as paper cutting (jianzhi), calligraphy, and the traditional Chinese breathing exercise "Baduanjin." The Russian delegation, in turn, brought traditional handicrafts and conducted a short on-site training course for their Chinese friends.

The cultural performance was the highlight of the event. Around 160 participants from both countries presented dance and song routines and held a fashion show.

This event was organized by the magazine “Partners”. -0-
