Turkey is the guest of honor of the 2014 Beijing International Book Fair which kicked off on Wednesday.
Known as the one of the world’s biggest book fair, the fair will host 2,162 publishers from 78 different countries.
Under the theme of "Turkey in All Its Colors", Turkey brought in a delegation of 200 members to Beijing, including 10 writers, said Tayfun Sener, cultural counselor at Turkish Embassy in Beijing.
Twenty Turkish publishers are to present 8,000 titles to the audience at the fair, once again connecting the two cultures after they had been tied together thousands of years ago by the Silk Road.
