每年8月14日为巴基斯坦独立日。1947年8月14日,巴基斯坦宣布从英国长期控制的印度帝国中独立,正式脱离英国管辖。
August 14th is Pakistan Independence Day. On August 14, 1947, Pakistan declared its independence from the British long-held Indian Empire and officially broke away from British jurisdiction.
记者在文化和美食节现场看到,这里人头攒动,除巴基斯坦在华友人,更多的是慕名而来的中国家庭。无论是贵重的玉器、珠宝,还是精美的克什米尔围巾、民族服饰,以及珍贵的乌尔都语书籍、风景照片...都让现场观众流连忘返。
We saw that it was crowded with people at the Culture and Food Festival, many Pakistani friends in China and Chinese families came here. A lot of shows and programs for precious jade, jewelry, exquisite Kashmiri scarves, national costumes as well as precious Urdu books, landscape photos attracted many visitors during the event.
当然最受欢迎了的,还是场内的美食一条街。巴基斯坦风味小羊腿被一扫而空,巴国民家常菜“咖喱鸡米饭”让人食欲大增,如还不尽兴,就试试“巴铁”传统美食炸黄豆,保准让你获得完全不同的味蕾体验。
Of course, the most popular is the food street in the venue. The Pakistani-style lamb was extremely liked by all people, and the Pakistani home-style dish "Curry Chicken Rice" greatly increased our appetite. If you are not satisfied, you may try the Pakistan traditional food fried soybeans, which is guaranteed to give you a completely different tasting experience.
文化和美食节现场还安排了精彩的巴基斯坦歌舞表演,艺术家们用精湛的技艺和对中巴文化的热爱,打动现场观众的心。值得一提的是,少年儿童成为了此次巴基斯坦文化和美食节的主力参观者。期待“比山高,比海深,比蜜甜,比钢硬”的中巴友谊,能够在孩子们心中生根发芽,一代一代永远传承。
The Culture and Food Festival also arranged wonderful Pakistani singing and dancing performances to entertain all guests. The artists touched the hearts of the audience with their superb skills and their love for Chinese and Pakistani culture. It is worth noting that children have become the main visitors of this Pakistani Culture and Food Festival. It is hoped that the China-Pakistan friendship, which is "higher than the mountains, deeper than the sea, sweeter than honey, and harder than steel", can take root in the hearts of children and be passed down from generation to generation.
