The love stories, legends, and descriptions of Jilin's beauty combined to paint a vivid picture of the province.

A painting and photography exhibit in the front hall of the Grand Theater on September 21, was meant to be a prelude to the other activities, with scenes of Jilin's economy, society, daily lives and tourism.

That afternoon, there were programs on the culture industry in Jilin to get investors interested, with folk artists show in their paper-cutting, painting, and other skills to Russian visitors.

On September 22, officials from the Russian Culture, Publication, and Mass Media bureaus; national TV and broadcasting representatives; and people in the arts, media and tourism came together to discuss bilateral communications and future cooperation in the culture industry.

Other activities will include parties for young Chinese and Russian artists and open-air cultural performances.
