NANJING, China, Dec. 11, 2023 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

On November 13, the "Belt and Road Initiative, China and the World" 2023 "SHOW

JIANGSU" Photography Project, jointly organized by the Information Office of

Jiangsu Provincial People's Government, the Foreign Affairs Office of Jiangsu

Provincial People's Government, and Xinhua News Agency's News and Information

Center, was officially launched at the Oriental Metropolitan Museum in Nanjing.

Media reporters and photographers from various countries and regions along the

"Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)" were invited to participate. From Nov 13 to

16, they have explored four cities - Nanjing, Changzhou, Huai'an, and Yancheng

in Jiangsu Province, capturing the unique perspectives and documenting

Jiangsu's role in promoting open development, expanding new spaces for domestic

and international openness, and experiencing the vigorous pulse of high-quality

development at the intersection of the BRI. It aims to further share the

"Jiangsu Chapter" of China's story with the global community.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the BRI. Situated at the intersection

of the BRI, Jiangsu leverages its geographical advantage to facilitate both

eastward and westward openings, becoming a crucial window for "Two-Way Opening"

in the new development pattern.

2023 "SHOW JIANGSU" Photography Project, focusing on international dialogue

under the theme of BRI, is set to explore industrial development, cultural

heritage, and people's lives. Through captivating images, the project aims to

portray the modern landscapes of Jiangsu, showcasing its role in building an

open province and contributing to the mutual learning and connection of

civilizations along the BRI.

"SHOW JIANGSU" Photography Project, which began in 2018, has been held

continuously for six years. It has invited more than 30 international media

reporters and photographers to explore Jiangsu. The works have been featured in

major international media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, The

Washington Post, The Guardian, and the Financial Times, with over 600 related

articles, reaching nearly 200 million audiences globally.

With refreshing autumn winds and picturesque scenery, the time is right for

capturing the beauty of Jiangsu. The 2023 "SHOW JIANGSU" picture scroll

showcasing Jiangsu's poetic landscapes, rich cultural atmosphere, and

harmonious urban development is now unfolding.
