Adjust font size:

A photo exhibition of the preparation work for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games was launched here Wednesday at Hungary's Lorand University.

Liu Wenqing, cultural counselor of the Chinese embassy in Hungary, and Jeno Kamuti, secretary general of Hungarian Olympic Committee, attended the opening ceremony.

Addressing the ceremony, Liu introduced Beijing's preparations for the 29th Olympic Games, which will begin on August 8. He hoped that by hosting the Olympic Games, China will not only draw the world's attention to its sports, but also to its people and culture.

The exhibition, from January 30 to February 15 in the arboretum of the university, serves to strengthen the friendship and cultural communication between people in China and Hungary, Liu said.

Kamuti was confident the Beijing Olympics will be the best in history, and that the Games will embody unprecedented cultural and humanistic significance.

The 60 photos on display, provided by the culture office of China's Embassy in Hungary, cover a wide range of themes including the construction of the Olympic stadiums, the training of athletes, the active participation of Chinese citizens, as well as the infrastructure in Chinese cities.
