Having served as the capital city for 13 Chinese dynasties, Luoyang in central China’s Henan Province has a rich historical and cultural heritage. The centuries-old Luoyang historical and cultural block is a must-visit spot for tourists who come to this central Chinese city. Meanwhile, located in the middle of France, there is also a very famous historical city, which is Tours. It is nicknamed the “garden of France.”

Just as Luoyang is vibrant and renowned for its ancient civilization and ancient culture, Tours is also famous for its historical buildings and vibrant history there. Luoyang and Tours became sister cities officially in 1982, thus creating a bond between the two different continents and different cultures.
