​There are many roads in the world, which would you choose?

There is one road that spans thousands of years and unveils a promising trade route between the East and West.

The road fully embraces the diversity of civilizations. It was conceived in China, but belongs to the world.

In this era of lasting turbulence and constant changes, this road has peace and development as its beacon and embodies principles of extensive consultation and joint contribution for shared benefits.

Eventually, it leads to a vision of happiness and well-being for people of all countries.

As the third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation gets underway in Beijing, see what is the Belt and Road Initiative and how the global project delivers tangible benefits to countries along it through principles of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits.
