A China Bond Across the Pacific

Spring is in full bloom, and friendship is taking root. In March 2026, as part of the "50,000 in Five Years" initiative, a delegation of 100 students and teachers from Iowa, the United States, visited the Shijiazhuang Foreign Language School.

From the spirited energy of martial arts classes to the intricate art of crafting hand-woven Chinese knots, every moment was a discovery. The most touching scene unfolded beneath the China-US Friendship Tree, where young people from both nations stood side by side, tying their heartfelt wishes to its branches.
