China has long been celebrated as the “Land of Etiquette”. In its interactions with other nations， the notion of “etiquette” carries deep historical significance， showcases the countrys rich cultural heritage， and captures the essence of its distinct national character. The activity has garnered extensive attention and enthusiastic participation from all sectors of society since its inception in 2020. In these years， 160 foreign-affairs gifts have been collected and more than 600 pieces have been sent as foreign-affairs gifts to over 30 countries and regions， including Rongchang pottery， Chengkou Shanshen lacquerware， and Ciqikou irregular embroidery. Foreign-affairs gifts have emerged as a vital component of international communication. These gifts encapsulate Chongqings distinctive cultural appeal and embody the warm-heartedness of its people. As they are showcased on the world stage and shared with the world at large， they serve to tell the story of China and the account of Chongqing.

Mrs. Wols， the wife of the Minister of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in China， and Mafalda Soares Nunes， the wife of the Consul-General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Chongqing， were invited as the judges. Mrs. Wols was deeply impressed by the exquisite handmade crafts on display， including paper-cuttings， embroidery， grass linen， and bookmarks engraved with famous scenic spots in Chongqing， and Rongchang pottery. She expressed her belief that Chongqing is a city with a rich cultural heritage. Ms. Mafalda Soares Nunes said that the nominated works were exceptionally delicate and represented the most characteristic cultural and tourism products of Chongqing. As foreign-affairs gifts， these selected gifts will help promote cultural exchanges between China and other countries， and allow people from around the world to understand the unique regional cultures of various districts and counties in Chongqing.

中國(guó)素有“禮儀之邦”之稱，在對(duì)外交往中，“禮”體現(xiàn)了歷史內(nèi)涵，彰顯了文化底蘊(yùn)，代表了民族氣質(zhì)。自2020年“重慶好禮”外事禮品征集活動(dòng)啟動(dòng)以來，得到了社會(huì)各界人士的廣泛關(guān)注和積極參與。連續(xù)幾年，成功征集外事禮品160件，并在對(duì)外交往中送出榮昌陶、城口山神漆器、沙磁亂針繡等外事禮品600余件，足跡遍及30余個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)。外事禮品已成為國(guó)際交往的橋梁和見證，承載著重慶獨(dú)特的文化魅力，飽含著重慶人民的友好情誼，走出國(guó)門、走向世界，對(duì)外講述中國(guó)故事、重慶故事。

荷蘭駐華大使館公使夫人沃爾斯、荷蘭駐重慶總領(lǐng)事夫人包睦菲受邀擔(dān)任本屆“重慶好禮”外事禮品評(píng)委。公使夫人對(duì)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)展示的剪紙、刺繡、夏布，以及刻有重慶著名景點(diǎn)的書簽、榮昌陶器等手工藝品印象深刻，她認(rèn)為重慶是非常有文化底蘊(yùn)的城市。總領(lǐng)事夫人表示，此次參選作品非常精致，是重慶最具代表性和特色的文化旅游產(chǎn)品。作為外事禮品，將有助于促進(jìn)中外文化交流，會(huì)讓世界各國(guó)人民了解重慶各區(qū)縣獨(dú)特的地域文化。
