ULAN BATOR, Sept. 4 (Xinhua) -- A group of acrobats and martial arts masters from north China's Hebei Province put on a gala performance here on Wednesday evening to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between China and Mongolia.

The event, titled "Silk Road of Full Love," is part of a series of cultural events to celebrate the anniversary.

During the one-hour performance at the Asa Circus in the capital, the performers showed off their skills, winning applause from a large crowd.
