Xi inspected the city of Baoji in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province and the city of Tianshui in neighboring Gansu Province from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday morning.

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, has urged the development of a sense of reverence and affection for Chinese civilization and the passing on of fine traditional Chinese culture from generation to generation.

Xi made the remarks on Tuesday afternoon when inspecting the Baoji Bronze Ware Museum in the city of Baoji in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province.

At the museum, Xi was briefed on the history and culture of the Zhou and Qin dynasties (1046-207 BC) and took a close look at exhibits such as “He Zun,” a bronze ritual wine vessel carrying the earliest written record of the Chinese characters for “China.”

Xi also learned about the strengthened preservation, study, and utilization of cultural relics.

Xi said that the 5,000 years of Chinese civilization should be further explored and studied, noting that more efforts are required to illustrate its essence and promote the great wisdom it embodies.

Through these efforts, the people will be able to develop a strengthened sense of pride in the Chinese civilization, and the spirit of patriotism can be promoted more effectively, he said.
