EU Ambassador Schweisgut said, "The European Union and China both have long histories and rich cultures. We hope our 'Europe Street' event will deepen exchanges between our cultures and allow Chinese people attending the event to experience Europe right in the heart of their own capital. "

The EU delegation to China operated an additional booth providing information, guiding visitors and handing out special souvenir "EU Passports," which visitors can use to collect a stamp from each EU Member State and are eligible to receive a small gift at the end of their journey around "Europe" booths.
