The local government invited about a dozen bloggers based in China, both Chinese and foreigners, to have a two-day trip in the city to explore its history and culture. They toured around ancient villages with traditional architecture and visited Chinese artists and craftsmen.
A short video about the trip was filmed and will be broadcast online.
"It's a truly unique experience, a combination of arts, history, food and music," said Martina Cvetanoska, 24, a postgraduate from Zhejiang University in Hangzhou. Her favorite part was that a Chinese painter painted her a vivid portrait in traditional ink painting.
Catherine Arnett, 20, based in Hangzhou, said that she likes meeting the artists and talking to them about their works.
