Traditional crafts from Hangzhou are wowing visitors in Berlin, Germany this month.

The China Cultural Center in Berlin and several Chinese government cultural departments have joined forces to launch the exhibition in Berlin, which runs from Sept 8 to 25.

The exhibition showcases Hangzhou's traditional craftsmanship and how innovative artists are finding new ways to apply them to modern life.

"The activity will deepen the cultural dialogue between China and Germany, facilitating the cooperation between our two countries," said Liu Hongge, deputy director of the China International Culture Exchange Centre.
