"Taiyuan is a city with lots of history and stories, and I feel very comfortable experiencing the rich culture," said Khian Artgold Bonsobre from the Philippines at Jinci Temple, a historical cultural site first constructed over 2,000 years ago and offering fine examples of ancient Chinese architecture, sculpture, frescoes and inscriptions. 

"From the ancient cultural relics, I can feel the long history of China. My motherland Syria also has a long history. The Chinese ancient Silk Road closely linked the history, culture and life of the two countries, and the two ancient civilizations continue to converge and merge. I want to share these unique and beautiful cultures with overseas netizens," said Zein Alabdin Ali, a vlogger from Syria.
