Chinese lanterns light up Peru

Sichuan lanterns, with a history of more than 1,800 years, have been displayed in dozens of countries. The festival brought the lanterns to Latin America for the first time.

As an important strategic partner of China, Peru also was one of the Latin American countries involved in China's Belt and Road Initiative.

"In recent years, the relations and cooperation between China and Peru was enhanced in many fields. Cultural exchanges are a highlight. They narrow the distance of the two nations and let Peruvian people feel the charm of traditional Chinese culture," Zhu said.

The event was supported by the Chinese Embassy in Peru and Sichuan provincial government.
