As the Chinese Lunar New Year gallops closer, a grand bazaar featuring a dazzling array of special products from home and abroad opened to the public at Jinan Quancheng Square on Jan 10.

The exhibition is divided into three areas to showcase folk performances, exhibit a variety of processed foods including tea, candies, and wine, and display overseas products from countries involved in the Belt and Road Initiative.

At the overseas booth, Pakistani wood products, Indian sandalwood, and Spanish wines are available for visitors.

The organizer also set up a special booth, displaying featured agricultural products of western Hunan province, aiming to support the economy development in that region.  

Chinese Lunar New Year falls on Jan 25 this year. The exhibition will run until Jan 14.
