Chinese Women's Culture Week will be held from March 15 to 24 in France.

As an important part of the Sino-French Culture Year, the culture week will involve a series of symposiums and dialogues for women of the two countries to exchange views.

Meanwhile a photo exhibition and some fashion shows will also be held during the week to give a full picture of the work and life of Chinese women.

Chinese Culture Year, themed "Ancient China, Colorful China and Modern China", opened on October 6 last year in France to mark the 40th anniversary of the establishment of Sino-French diplomatic relationship, and a French Culture Week, themed "Romance and Innovation", will be held in China this year.
