Zhejiang's culture and innovative progress stand tall at expo

At Expo 2025 Osaka in Japan, a bamboo forest rises from the ground, its slender stalks etched with flowing Chinese calligraphy, surrounded by the quiet hum of robotic hands and mechanical dogs. Bamboo Rhyme, an outdoor installation, was unveiled as the centerpiece of Zhejiang Week at the China Pavilion this month.

Blending nature and tradition with technology and innovation, the installation invites visitors to a multisensory encounter that reflects Zhejiang province's vision for harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature.

Crafted from bamboo harvested in Zhejiang's Anji county, the work merges ancient aesthetics and cutting-edge artificial intelligence to showcase the province's cultural and technological vitality on the world stage.
