BEIJING: Pakistan, like China, has long history of civilization and with the continuous progress of the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the two countries could link their people more closely by developing a cultural corridor.
“Pakistan, like China, has a long history of civilization. With the continuous progress of the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, if we simultaneously develop an eternal Pak-China cultural corridor and learn from each other’s cultural traditions, we can link the people of the two nations more closely, thus building a community of common destiny between China and Pakistan.”
These views were expressed by Cheng Xizhong, Visiting Professor at Southwest University of Political Science and Law and enior Fellow of the Charhar Institute in an article.
“As a famous city with thousands of years of history, Lahore has its own proud capital. It used to be the capital of the Mughal Dynasty. With hundreds of years of vicissitudes, it has accumulated a bright and profound cultural heritage, known as the “soul of Pakistan”.
A large number of elaborate architectures left by the Mughal Dynasty still show the splendid civilization of the past and fascinate visitors. The Badshahi Mosque is magnificent.
Whenever anyone visit, it has a variety of majestic features, rendering the style of Islamic architecture incisively and vividly, the scholar said.
When people walked beside the majestic and magnificent Lahore Fort, they would feel that the ancient city wall stretches out, and every red brick and stone seems to be describing the history of time, he said.
On the moonlit night, when people sat by the fountain of the Shalimar Garden and look at the pavilions deliberately built with marble, they would see the scene of the multi-column fountains spewing green and white gemstones, and they would also sincerely sigh for the industrious wisdom and ingenuity of the ancient Pakistani working people. – Agencies
