On April 20, a beach in France was filled by people and kites flying in the sky from 25 countries and regions.

The 37th International Kite Festival in Berck-sur-Mer opened and China made a wonderful appearance as the first-ever guest country of honor at the event.

Chinese-inflected cultural activities took place at the festival, including a gigantic dragon-headed centipede kite-flying performance at the opening ceremony, workshops for kite-making techniques by artisans from Weifang, as well as performances and experiential activities from lion dances, to martial arts and performances of traditional Chinese instruments and tea ceremonies.
