Relying on the site, a small urban heritage park was built, becoming a cultural landmark for China-Tunisia people-to-people and cultural exchanges, and effectively promoting mutual understanding between the two peoples.
At the Krasnaya Rechka site in Kyrgyzstan, the overall urban layout was confirmed, revealing the architectural techniques, urban systems, and the diverse cultures and religious beliefs of ancient people in the Chuy Valley of Central Asia during the medieval period, presenting a vivid picture of exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations along the Silk Road.
In recent years, according to Wang Wei, a veteran archaeologist with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, such joint archaeological programs have become increasingly stable. For example, the Egyptian project has spanned eight years, yielding a series of academic progress and social influence. It is a positive development, he said, one that needs to continue being strengthened.
Since 2020, there have been more than 80 joint archaeological projects between China and 30 other countries. Over 10 international cooperation projects on cultural relic conservation and restoration have also been carried out, Wang said.
