Multinationals tap opportunities at services trade fair
In Shougang Park, one of the exhibition venues for the fair, Peking Opera, an ancient cultural heritage, has become a new fashion trend. A smart map themed on Peking Opera's cultural journey, compiled by the Beijing Overseas Cultural Exchanges Center, has attracted many exhibition visitors.
The map helps sort out more than 100 landmarks, such as ancient Peking Opera theater stages, performance venues, and nearby restaurants in Beijing. Each site has detailed information in the forms of graphics, images, and videos, allowing the audience to experience virtual reality (VR) panoramic views and instant navigation.
