On March 28-29, Beijing will host
the opening ceremony of the Year of Kazakhstan Tourism in China. A Kazakh
delegation of 400 people, including cultural figures, musicians and business
people, arrived in the Chinese capital. The program includes the Kazakh-Chinese
forum on tourism and investment development and a concert featuring such
domestic performers as Roza Rymbayeva, Zarina Altynbayeva and Maira
Mukhamedkyzy, as well as ethnic music bands and the Astana Ballet Theater
troupe, who will introduce the audience to the musical heritage and traditions
of Kazakhstan.
“I believe that foreigners are most interested
in Kazakhstan’s natural beauty, landscapes and purity. The country
boasts many gorgeous places. We are now going to the theater stage to carry out
a sound check. It is certainly a great responsibility to represent and promote
the current level of the Kazakh culture at this prestigious classical theater,”
said Roza Rymbayeva, People’s Artist of Kazakhstan.
“To date, there are over 280 registered
participants from China, indicating the country’s strong interest in
cooperation with Kazakhstan. We share common borders and are very
accessible to Chinese tourists. The forum will feature two panel sessions. The
first one will discuss establishing organized bilateral tourism, while the
second one will focus on issues and prospects of investment potential,” said
Yerzhan Yerkinbayev, Kazakh Vice Minister of Culture and Sports.
