Step into a time machine that connects ancient China and medieval France! Luoyang – once the capital of 13 Chinese dynasties – and Tours, France’s picturesque 'garden,' have been cultural siblings since 1982. Now, as China and France celebrate 60 years of diplomatic ties, this sister-city bond is stealing the spotlight .
Luoyang’s sprawling historical blocks whisper tales of emperors and Silk Road traders, while Tours’ Renaissance-era castles and vineyards paint a storybook European scene. Though separated by 8,000 km, both cities share a ‘live-out-loud’ approach to preserving their pasts. 'Walking through Luoyang feels like flipping through a history textbook – but with way better noodles!' laughs Mimi, a French vlogger documenting her trip.
The 42-year partnership has sparked student exchanges, museum collaborations, and even peony festivals (Luoyang’s official flower, naturally ). With China-France relations hitting this milestone, young travelers are flooding social media with #SisterCityVibes – proving that old-world charm never goes out of style.
As one Luoyang tour guide puts it: 'History isn’t just in books anymore. It’s in the hands of Gen Z explorers.' Ready to plan your dual-continent adventure?
