Germany is Hunan's largest trading partner in Europe.

In recent years, the mutual cooperation in the fields of culture, tourism, science and technology, and environmental protection has also been expanded.

The major ¡°Belt and Road¡± countries media coverage of Hunan Province has been successfully held for four sessions since 2015. It was also a warming-up for the upcoming ¡°Culture of China-Hunan Culture Promotion in Germany¡± event to be held between October 29 and November 1 in Dusseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia. Since then, a series of arts exhibitions, cultural lectures, and tourism promotion will also be held in Germany.
