A delegation of Hungarians left Hungary on Wednesday for a week-long visit to China.

They will visit Beijing, China's capital city, and the Shandong province.

The trip follows an invitation from Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao who made the proposal during his official visit to Hungary in 2011.

The delegations members are 50 talented young Hungarians from fields of social sciences, natural sciences, geography and engineering, as well as young entrepreneurs.

As outstanding students and entrepreneurs, they have already been working on promoting Hungarian-Chinese economic relations.
