The opening ceremony of the 2016 China Cultural Festival was held in Moscow in Russia on July 4. Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets, Chinese Ambassador to Russia Li Hui, Chinese Vice Cultural Minister Ding Wei and about 1,500 officials and representatives from the two countries attended the event.

In the light of the 2014-2016 cooperation agreement signed by the cultural ministries of China and Russia, the event will feature Chinese cultural weeks, folk music, traditional dances, dramas and martial arts, in the form of some 30 activities.

Artists and performers from about eight cities and provinces of China would share their latest creations with Russian people during the festival. The event will further deepen the cultural communication and cooperation between the two nations.

China and Russia agreed to hold cultural festivals in the 1990s. Now, the festivals have become the most influential flagship cultural events, being held on the largest scale and with a wide audience.
