A highlight of the concert was a Chinese singer Chen Tao singing a Ukrainian song "My Kiev," who won roaring applause from the Ukrainian public.

In parallel with the concert, a photo exhibition entitled "Colorful Western China" is held as a part of the cultural event. It features 45 pictures capturing scenery, ecology, everyday life and traditional culture of western China.

The cultural event, hosted by the State Council Information Office of China (SCIO) of China and the Chinese Embassy in Ukraine, has drawn the audience of about 1,500 spectators, including Ukrainian officials and government representatives.

Ren Xiangqun, the deputy director of the Human Rights Affairs Department of the SCIO, said the event will deepen cultural exchanges between China and Ukraine.

"This is another evidence that the cultural exchanges between China and Ukraine are continuously deepening due the continuous progress of the Belt and Road Initiative," Ren said.
