Initially launched in 2004, Luojia Golden Autumn International Cultural Festival, one of Wuhan University’ brand activities, has become a shining part of international students’ campus life. On the sunny November 18th, international students from over 100 countries and regions gathered at the Gui Yuan (Osmanthus Garden) playground, presenting us with excellent performances and exhibitions during this 13th cultural festival with the theme of “One Belt, One Road, One Family”.

The international students from different countries and regions are the protagonists of the international culture festival. These ethnically dressed friends with various nationalities, complexions and races make unique traditional delicacies, show exquisite ornaments, postcards and even books introducing their local conditions and customs. These booths are also decorated with scenery photos and posted with Chinese-English brief introductions of their countries. Going around the Gui Yuan playground is just like having a world tour.

Luojia Golden Autumn International Cultural Festival is not only a platform for Chinese students to get in touch with foreign friends, but also a carnival and opportunity for international students to enhance cultural exchanges.

In this festival, everyone can buy a “passport” at 10 RMB, which later could collect stamps in each booth.
Taking this passport, we could travel around the world.
But the most exciting part of the exhibition is…… the food of all countries!
And the most adorable part is……the cute children!
