In the free time the girls continued to explore the culture of China and visited the fascinating exhibition “My heart is purified as I walk along a clean river…” at the National Art Museum. The exhibition includes over 80 works from the collection of decorative and applied arts of the East at the National Art Museum of the Republic of Belarus (wooden, porcelain and bronze sculptures, costume elements, traditional Chinese paintings and calligraphy).

Let’s wish our students further success and perseverance in learning Chinese language!
