FUZHOU, June 30 (Xinhua) -- The "Bond with Kuliang: 2024 China-U.S. Youth Festival," which opened on Monday, concluded here on Friday in Fuzhou of southeast China's Fujian Province. It is co-organized by the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, the Fujian Provincial People's Government, and the All-China Youth Federation. More than 200 American youth and over 300 of their Chinese counterparts attended the event.
Kuliang, or Guling in Mandarin, is situated on the outskirts of Fuzhou. Since 1886, people from more than 20 countries, including Britain, France and the United States, began to build villas in Yixia Village in Kuliang to spend the summer, fostering a harmonious coexistence with local villagers and thus contributing to the enduring "Kuliang stories."
