A group of college students from the United States came to Xiamen, a coastal city in Fujian province recently, to experience its local culture.

The students will stay in Xiamen until early August. They have already experienced Xiamen's intangible cultural heritage, including puppetry, and made moon cakes.

The activity was jointly launched by the College of Humanities of Xiamen University and the Confucius Institute at the University of Delaware, to enhance cultural exchanges between the two sides.
