ECNU also organized a rich and colorful Sino-Japanese cultural exchange event for the students from Aichi Prefectural University. In a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, everyone learned from and appreciated each other, deepening their understanding and respect for each other's cultures and forging profound and sincere friendships.
