More than 30 live-streaming hosts from over 20 countries visited Hengdian World Studios, located in Hengdian town, Dongyang city, Zhejiang province, on June 6.

The event was part of a global communication event entitled "Daka China - Jinhua, A Golden Hub of BRI". Dongyang is a county-level city administered by the city of Jinhua.

Hengdian World Studios is the largest film and TV drama shooting base in the world, with one fourth of Chinese movies, one third of Chinese TV series, and two thirds of Chinese costume dramas being shot there every year.

It is home to many reconstructed ancient palaces, buildings, and streets and is a national 5A-level tourist attraction.
