The first container train from Chongqing arrives in Minsk

The first freight train from the Chinese city of Chongqing made a stop at the «Kolyadichi» station. It carries 41 containers with modern IT goods and clothing. The train arrived in Belarus in just 12 days instead of two months taken by the sea route. The train will transport Belarusian goods back. The administration of the Chinese city has already suggested the project of creating a joint logistics hub in the Minsk region. The goods here will be sorted for further transportation to the EU and Russia. And these days our country hosts the days of culture of Chongqing. In the Mikhail Savitsky art gallery a unique exhibition is presented. Dozens of paintings depict the views of the modern city.
