A group of 34 expats from countries including Germany, France and South Korea took a short tour of Jixi National Wetland Park in Jinan, Shandong province on Sept 27 and participated in a series of activities.

The tour was part of efforts made by the local government to promote international exchange and help promote the city to foreigners.

In addition, the group also tasted some of Jinan's unique delicacies and visited a photography exhibition during the tour.

The Jixi National Wetland Park, covering an area of around 33.4 square kilometers, is the largest urban wetland in Jinan. The park has a healthy environment and a vast expanse of reeds and branching streams.

Frank Schulze, a German, who has been in Jinan for three days, said that "Jinan is very beautiful and its environment is very livable. It is a very clean city. I hope Jinan will continue to develop and improve!"

The event was jointly hosted by the Foreign Affairs Office of Shandong Provincial People's Government, Shandong People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, Jinan municipal foreign affairs office and the Jinan People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries.
