2020 The 3rd World Cities Culture • Tianfu Symposium
Themed “From Cultural Space to Urban Identity,” the forum brought together hundreds of prominent global cultural figures, industry leaders, and authoritative institutions to delve into vital issues such as cultural and urban identity, and the inheritance and innovation of cultural heritage. Chengdu’s deep cultural roots and recent advancements in the “Three Cities and Three Capitals” initiative were credited for the city’s rapid return to normalcy and the stimulation of internal economic dynamics, promoting high-quality economic development.
