Chinese expats in Dubai celebrated the 69th founding anniversary of the People's Republic of China on Sunday with a special performance by the world-renowned China National Peking Opera Company.
Dubai-Beijing relations have been growing at a fast pace in the past few years. According to the Chinese Consulate in Dubai, there are around 270,000 Chinese expats living and working in the emirate.
Dubai is also the most favoured first stop for Chinese tourists traveling to Arab destinations in the Middle East. Last year, the number of Chinese tourists who visited Dubai reached 1 million and about 2.2 million Chinese travellers transited via Dubai.
