JINING, China, Dec. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Jining city in east China's Shandong Province and Ashikaga city in Japan held

an online symposium on embroidery on Dec. 13, having an in-depth exchange of

views on the development of the embroidery culture and industry in the two

sister cities, as well as their exchanges and cooperation in the future.

At the event, Zhang Juan, an intangible cultural heritage inheritor of Yanzhou

embroidery, and Zhang Haifeng, an intangible cultural heritage inheritor of

Shandong embroidery, introduced the inheritance and development of the two

intangible cultural heritage items and presented over ten embroidery works,

which were much welcomed by Japanese friends.

A Japanese representative said he was deeply impressed by Jining's concrete

steps to build cultural confidence and strength through the event, which was an

effective way to introduce Chinese culture overseas.

Embroidery techniques are also used to make Japanese kimonos. China and Japan

enjoy affinity in production modes, traditional skills, and costume culture. In

addition to relics and sightseeing, Jining and Ashikaga can conduct broad

exchanges in such aspects as production technologies and ways of life.
