The 2026 "A Date with China: Meet Xinjiang" international media tour is set to kick off on August 25 in Urumqi, Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region. As the sixth iteration of the "A Date with China" series, this event upholds an international, youth-focused and integrated media approach to present an authentic and panoramic view of Xinjiang's development and charm.

Foreign journalists, experts, social media influencers and Gen Z representatives from countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Russia, Algeria, Serbia, Ukraine, India, Brazil, Indonesia, Vietnam and Pakistan will join Chinese reporters to form an international media delegation.

This journey is designed to uncover compelling narratives across several key sectors: technological innovation, integrated culture-tourism development, local intangible cultural heritage crafts, specialty industries, rural revitalization, and green ecology.

Now in its sixth edition, "A Date with China" has hosted hundreds of international guests from over 40 countries, facilitating visits to more than 500 locations. As the 2026 tour gets underway, participants are set to bridge distances once again — capturing and sharing the contemporary beauty and dynamic spirit of Xinjiang with the world.
