The Chinese Embassy in the US capital lit up the weekend with a spectacular youth-oriented Spring Festival gala, uniting 500+ teens from over 20 states with Ambassador Xie Feng. This event aimed to kindle mutual appreciation amid growing bilateral exchanges.
A promo reel of China Media Group’s famed Spring Festival Gala stole the show, immersing everyone in holiday magic. The cultural expo dazzled with Suzhou embroidery’s finesse, calligraphy strokes, paper-cutting artistry, and engaging arrow tosses, providing Americans a window into authentic Chinese New Year vibes.
Ambassador Xie rolled up his sleeves to teach tangyuan-making, turning the session into a sweet, interactive workshop. Youth who traveled to China previously gushed about locals’ warmth, futuristic skylines, and culinary wonders that reshaped their views. Excitement brews for 2026 trips among the group.
Complementing the fair were screenings of ‘Follow the Movie, Tour China’ and the Gala teaser, vividly illustrating China’s traditions and New Year fervor. These gatherings serve as vital platforms for fostering goodwill and collaboration between American and Chinese young minds.
