Signs to help Chinese tourists enjoy Russian capital

Around 100 Chinese-language road signs and tourist information boards will soon be seen along the streets of Moscow to meet the needs of growing numbers of Chinese tourists to the Russian capital.

"The new road signs and tourist information boards will be in Russian, English and Chinese," said Oxana Kosareva, minister of culture of the Moscow state government.

Kosareva said the project aimed at welcoming more Chinese tourists, especially during next year's soccer World Cup.
