Tucked into the walls of a 326-meter-deep sinkhole in Hechi city, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, a one-of-a-kind cliffside bookstore has captured global attention — blending dramatic natural surroundings with an unparalleled reading experience. 坐落於廣西河池市一處深達326米的天坑崖壁之上，一家獨一無二的“懸崖書店”憑借壯麗自然景觀與别具一格的閱讀體驗，吸引了全球目光。 Nestled within the Mianhua Sinkhole Scenic Area in Luocheng Mulam autonomous county, the bookstore opened its doors in May and quickly emerged as a new landmark for culture-tourism integration.

With more than 70 contacts on her device, she actively participates in her peer social network.

"It's easy to get addicted," she confessed, recalling a time when she bypassed parental controls. "When my dad disabled my watch functions, I found a way to reactivate them ...
Japan owes an explanation to China and the international community as to why it is unwilling to clearly state the commitments it has made in the past and its legal obligations, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on Thursday. 日本外交部發言人林劍週四表示，日本應向中國和國際社會解釋，為何其不願明確闡述過去作出的承諾及其法律義務。 Lin made the remark at a daily news conference in Beijing, when asked about the comments Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi made on Wednesday in Japan's Upper House about the China-Japan Joint Statement of 1972. 林劍在北京舉行的例行記者會上作出上述表態。當時他被問及日本首相高市早苗週三在日本參議院就《1972年中日聯合聲明》發表的言論。 As a landmark political document underpinning China-Japan ties, the statement's Article 3 states that "the Government of the People's Republic of China reiterates that Taiwan is an inalienable part of the territory of the People's Republic of China", and "the Government of Japan fully understands and respects this stand...

Spending patterns among China's inbound travelers are shifting toward card-based transactions, experiential and everyday scenarios, underscoring the nation's progress in improving bank card acceptance and payment convenience, said a recent report by the World Tourism Alliance. 世界旅遊聯盟發布的最新報告指出，中國入境遊客的消費模式正轉向以銀行卡支付為主，並更多集中於沉浸式體驗和日常消費場景，這凸顯了中國在提升銀行卡受理環境和支付便利性方面取得的顯著進展。 It said experiencing Chinese culture is increasingly the primary motivation for foreign visitors. This growing appetite for cultural depth is driving a shift from "checklist sightseeing" to "immersive experiences", making China's cultural treasure trove a key driver of inbound tourism growth. 報告稱，體驗中國文化正成為越來越多外國遊客的首要動機。這種對文化深度的渴望，正促使遊客從“打卡式觀光”轉向“沉浸式體驗”，中國豐富的文化資產因此成為入境旅遊增長的重要推動力。 The trend reflects ongoing enhancements to China's card acceptan...
A leading Chinese commercial space company launched the country's first reusable rocket on Wednesday, with the spacecraft's second-stage booster managing to enter its designated orbit, despite the attempt to recover its first-stage booster remaining unsuccessful. 中國一家領先的商業航天公司藍箭航天週三成功發射了該國首枚可重復使用火箭，儘管一級助推器的回收嘗試未能成功，但該航天器的二級助推器仍成功進入預定軌道。 The ZQ 3 Y1 carrier rocket—a gigantic vessel designed and manufactured by Beijing-based Land-Space and primarily made ofstainless steel —blasted off at noon from its launch service tower at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China.

A new regulation mandating the sealing of public security administrative penalty records, including those related to drug use, has sparked an intense debate on social media, with many people worrying that it may condone illegal activities and undermine social security. 一項要求封存治安管理行政處罰記錄（包括涉毒記錄）的新規在社交媒體上引發激烈討論，許多人擔心，這可能縱容違法行為並損害社會安全。 Addressing such fears, legal experts said the records will be sealed, not deleted or expunged, which in no way will condone or cover up illegal activities. Strict access restrictions already exist for sensitive industries involving minors and public safety, they added. 法律專家對此回應稱，這些記錄將被“封存”，而非刪除或抹除，這絕不會縱容或掩蓋違法行為。他們補充說，涉及未成年人和公共安全的敏感行業本就有嚴格的準入限制。 The new rule, which is part of the revised Law on Penalties for Administration of Public Security, will take effect on Jan 1, 2026. 這項新規屬於新版《治安管理處罰法》的一部分...
