Nestled in the Indian Ocean off the coast of East Africa, the Republic of Seychelles is a breathtaking archipelago of 115 islands, renowned for its stunning natural beauty and rich biodiversity. Often dubbed a "paradise for tourists," Seychelles thrives on tourism, which accounts for over 70 percent of its GDP. Fishing also plays a vital role in the nation's economy, with fish products topping the list of exports. Since establishing diplomatic relations in 1976, China and Seychelles have fostered strong ties, particularly in education and cultural exchange. The Seychelles-China Day, held for 14 years, exemplifies the deepening connection between the two nations. President Wavel Ramkalawan shares insights into the significance of cultural exchange and how the multicultural fabric of Seychelles, including his own family's Chinese heritage, enriches mutual understanding. He invites Chinese visitors to explore the unique experiences Seychelles has to offer, from pristine beaches to its vibrant cultural heritage.
