The China Cultural Center in Wellington, New Zealand, was inaugurated by Chinese Vice-Minister of Culture Ding Wei and Chief Executive of New Zealand's Ministry for Culture and Heritage Paul James on Dec 11.

In the opening ceremony, Ding said the China Cultural Center in New Zealand is a major milestone for China-New Zealand cultural and art exchanges, and it will serve a bridge for strengthening bilateral people-to-people understanding and enhancing cooperation between the two peoples.

In Nov 2014 during his state visit to New Zealand, President Xi Jinping announced that China would establish a China Cultural Center in New Zealand. That month, a memorandum of understanding with the Wellington City Council was signed to establish a China Cultural Center in Wellington.
