From rare historical artifacts to symphonic collabs, Russia and China are painting the town red (and gold!) to celebrate 75 years of diplomatic ties. The \"Russia-China Friendship Through the Ages\" exhibition launched Tuesday in St. Petersburg, offering Gen Z history buffs a fresh look at decades of cultural exchange.
🏛️ Over 200 exhibits—many never seen publicly before—trace key moments in bilateral relations at the State Museum of Political History. Think vintage documents, art, and multimedia displays showing how the two nations leveled up their partnership from post-WWII allies to modern strategic collaborators.
🇨🇳 Chinese Consul General Luo Zhanhui highlighted the \"timeless role of friendship\" between the countries, while museum director Sergey Rybakov called their bond \"a blueprint for win-win global cooperation.\"
🎶 The opening night slayed with a Russia-China orchestra performance and hands-on workshops teaching traditional calligraphy and dance moves. Pro tip: The exhibition runs until February 2025—perfect for your winter travel plans! ❄️
