Earlier this month, the UCD Confucius Institute for Ireland organized a series of Chinese culture classes for undergraduate students majoring in Commerce and Chinese Studies, where the students had the unique experience of working with Chinese water-ink paintings, Chinese martial arts and traditional Chinese musical instruments, including the ‘Guzheng’ (Chinese Harp), under the direction of Chinese teachers. The classes were warmly welcomed and highly commended by the students.
