During the Roundtable Discussion at the first International Communication Conference on Hongshan Culture and Vision China event, young participants from various countries — all either content creators or active social media users — shared their perspectives on effectively presenting Chinese culture to global audiences.

This followed their immersive tour of historical and cultural sites throughout Liaoning province's Chaoyang city, including the Niuheliang National Archaeological Site Park, which reveals the mysteries of Hongshan culture dating back more than 5,000 years.

"I was really impressed by how much effort is being put into preserving all these cultural heritages from many years ago. I think visitors will not only find the city interesting but also enjoy themselves, especially the way they use technology to make the experience way more immersive," said Venezuelan online influencer Rafael Saavedra.

Rita Gao, Chinese Canadian and undergraduate student in sociology at Beijing Foreign Studies University, noted that when people discuss Chinese culture, they typically envision iconic landmarks like the Great Wall or the Summer Palace, or focus on dynastic history, while lesser-known aspects such as Hongshan culture remain overlooked.

"It breaks that boundary of what we expect Chinese culture and history to be," she said.
