About this episode

From the towering Karakoram mountains in the north to the shores of the Arabian Sea in the south, join CGTN’s Danial Khan on a 12-part journey across Pakistan, following the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Along the way, the series explores the infrastructure, industries and communities at the heart of Pakistan’s development and the growing cooperation between China and Pakistan.

This episode looks beyond roads and investment to the human connections that bring China and Pakistan closer. From the Pakistan-China Friendship Center, where the two countries celebrate their longstanding friendship, to a Chinese restaurant with a history spanning more than five decades and a growing interest in Chinese tea, the journey explores how food and cultural traditions build bridges between communities. At the Confucius Institute in Islamabad, meet Pakistani students learning Mandarin to pursue new opportunities in education, business and careers. Together, these stories show how China-Pakistan cooperation extends beyond infrastructure to cultural understanding, people-to-people exchanges and shared aspirations for the future.
