The educational program of the delegation's visit included visiting the most modern city library of Hefei, the museum of Anhui Province, and the traditional Chinese village of Hongcun with its unique architecture, regional ethnoculture, and local crafts.

The delegation visited the facilities of NIO Auto Technology (Anhui) Co., Ltd. and became acquainted with the organization of "smart" robotic production of electric vehicles.
