"Though it is my second time to join the China-Thailand cultural caravan, I am very happy that we made it after a 19-day journey," said Ke Yasha, leader of the Chinese participants of the caravan, adding that he is looking forward to the journey beyond in Thailand.

The caravan is going to visit provinces in northern and northeastern Thailand.

A closing ceremony of the trip is set on September 29 in Bangkok, as some 40 people from both China and Thailand will finish the whole trip.
