At the "Perceiving China, Beauty and Harmony" event on March 11, a delegation comprising spouses of ambassadors to China from countries including Jamaica, Argentina, Indonesia, Latvia and Portugal went to Hangzhou in Zhejiang province to experience the local intangible cultural heritage.
The event focused on two of Hangzhou's national-level intangible cultural heritage items — Wang Xingji fan-making and the Zhu Bingren copper sculpture. Through site visits and hands-on activities, the delegation gained insight into traditional Chinese artisanship and contemporary innovation.
