The festival celebration had a panda exhibition, a cultural heritage exhibition that included painting and calligraphy, a tea ceremony and tea tasting, and a demonstration of traditional Chinese medicine.

A special zodiac stamp issued in honor of the 2019 Chinese Year of the Pig was presented during the event.

On the red stamp, a chubby pig can be seen covered in a flower motif, under a sign saying "Year of Pig 2019".

It is the sixth edition of a Hungarian stamp commemorating the Chinese Spring Festival since the first was issued in 2014, the Year of Horse.

Dancers, singers and musicians from Northwest China's Gansu province staged a performance entitled Magical Silk Road. It was inspired by the famous Dunhuang frescoes, which attracted more than 600 people in June 2018 in Hungary.

Hungary, known for its abundant cultural and natural resources, and as the home of poet Sandor Petofi, was also keen to present its culture to Chinese people.
