Entitled "Cultural China, Spring Festival Celebrated All Around", the gala entertained a full house at the Grand Rex Cinema House in Paris on Thursday night.

A percussion dance delivering joy and exuberance opened the show. Then songs offered by well known artists Liu Bin and Lv Wei created a sizzling atmosphere. They sang popular hits like "Five Star Red Flag", "My Homeland and I", "We Are Soldiers", which aroused homesickness from compatriots in the audience.

Songs and dances from the Uygur, Tibetan, Mongolian and Dai ethnic groups were then performed by China National Ethnic Song and Dance Ensemble. This was a brilliant section hailed by 24- hundred audience members.

Then came the dance "Thousand-armed Goddess of Mercy", which brought the evening show to a grand finale.

The gala was organized by the Overseas Chinese Affair Office of the State Council. The art troupe will head to the UK, Belgium and Italy, next to perform to overseas Chinese there.
