Gary Locke, the former US ambassador to China, said it was important to reflect that China was building a new modernity while also not forgetting the foundation of its ancient culture.

"I would say 'modern', 'ancient' and 'energetic'. China is on the move," he responded.

This combination of old and new was reflected in the choices of Marine Jibladze, the Georgian Sinologist and author.

"It is both 'modern' and 'traditional' as well as 'safe'," she said.
