About 2,000 years ago, a shipping line that connected Asia, Africa and Europe pushed nations on the three continents to commercial and cultural exchanges.

It is the Maritime Silk Road, which was featured in an online video show launched by the China Cultural Center and China Tourism Office in Sydney on July 15.

The videos showcased four provinces and one autonomous region along the Maritime Silk Road.

Quanzhou, in one of the four provinces, is a starting point of the route which has received UNESCO recognition. Today, people can still track exchanges among different cultures in this city, as temples of different religions stand together in peace on the streets.

As part of the virtual exhibition series Visiting China Online, the exhibition was open to locals on the center's website and social media platforms.
