My name is Nicolas, a cultural influencer from Chile. I had the chance to visit Wuxi for the eighth Forum on Dialogue Between the Civilizations of China and Latin America and the Caribbean.
Wuxi is truly a sensational city — its infrastructure is amazing, everything feels new, clean, and well-organized. At first, I imagined it as just an ancient town, but I soon realized that while it proudly preserves its history, it has also developed tremendously. Today, it stands out with strong industries, top-level universities, and a powerful audiovisual sector.

The city is also blessed with beautiful rivers to explore, and thanks to its proximity to Shanghai Pudong International Airport, it's very convenient for international visitors. What impressed me the most is that Wuxi is fully prepared to host world-class events, from sports competitions to trade fairs and cultural forums. My experience here was extremely comfortable, and I will definitely return for a longer stay to create more content — Wuxi truly has endless stories to share with the world!

For me, the highlights were visiting Wuxi Studios 7 and taking a boat ride on the river — such a beautiful and unique experience that I had never had before in China.
I am also very happy to see Wuxi building friendships with Latin America. I sincerely hope that more Latin American cities will become sister cities with Wuxi in the future!
