The highlight of their visit was a musical play called Sound of the Silk Road which depicts the story of a young man who was raised in the West.

The diplomats enjoyed the musical play and expressed their approval through a resounding round of applause during the performance. "A profound comprehension of the past is necessary for carving out a brighter future," said Sidi Mohammed El Bakkari, Minister of the Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco to China. The Silk Road, having a history of 2,000 years and an abundance of profound culture, has not only acted as a bond between nations but also as a platform for cultural exchange that boasts a long history. As such, there is a growing need for artwork with unique cultural characteristics of the Silk Road to showcase its achievements throughout history.
