Sinologists get a look at local culture

Meanwhile, the Sinologists-after attending three days of lectures by Chinese scholars-were divided into different groups according to their research fields and were asked to conduct specific research at relevant academic organizations or universities, including Peking University, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Beijing Language and Culture University, for about two weeks.

They will then visit Guizhou province in Southwest China to learn about its ethnic culture and eco-civilization practices.

Later, the sinologists will interact with their Chinese professors on academic research and their theses.

Separately, five participants from countries including the United States, Nepal, and Serbia shared their stories about what they learned about Chinese culture during their studies in China.
