Fujian was a major starting point of the ancient maritime Silk Road and also an important hub of the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road. Together with Meizhou Daily from Fujian province, China Daily is hosting this collection under the theme “Capturing the Belt and Road”. The activity focuses on the art form of cartoons and aims to display the vigor of the Belt and Road through visual language. By painting the beautiful landscape of the Belt and Road, which promotes exchanges among different civilizations and thus builds a community with a shared future of mankind, we hope to present our readers a new angel of understanding the Chinese path to modernization. While inheriting the cultural heritages and values of ancient maritime Silk Road, we are also embracing the bright future of a new era.
