"The Chinese Art Week is a golden opportunity for the anchorage of Arabic cultural identity," said Houda Kchaou, Tunisian coordinator of this event, who is satisfied with the Chinese delegation composed of more than 90 artists and several journalists.

"Under the frame of Sino-Arabic Cooperation Forum, this international festival represents an important stage to build the solid cultural coordination thus to put the stones for the common civilization connection," she added.

At the opening ceremony, Chinese artists performed traditional Chinese orchestral music, oral stunts, Kunqu Opera, Peking Opera, magic and acrobatics. On the same day, an exhibition of intangible cultural heritage in Beijing also opened at the Sfax Exhibition Center, showcasing kite making, dough figurine making, Chinese calligraphy, seal caving and paper cutting.

The festival was organized by China’s culture ministry and ended on August 7.
