Led by Cuban Ambassador Mr. Alberto Jesús Blanco Silva, a group of 50 foreigners including staff of the Cuban Embassy and their family members visited Tanzhe Temple with a history of more than a thousand years, and then came to Shen Xueren Art Museum, appreciating works of Mr. Shen Xueren, a great master of the traditional Chinese painting. 

Under the instructions of LCC teachers, the Cubans enthusiastically participated in different kinds of activities experiencing the traditional Chinese culture, such as Chinese calligraphy, traditional Chinese painting, paper-cutting and Chinese knots. LCC teachers also gave an amazing lecture on Chinese Costumes with the newly published books which were written by LCC teachers –Living in Beijing – Get a Taste of Local Culture.
