and a UNESCO Global Geopark in east China.

A delegation from Yandangshan UNESCO Global Geopark was recently invited to attend
the 9th Asia Pacific Geoparks Network (APGN) Symposium 2026, which took place in
Langkawi UNESCO Global Geopark, Malaysia, in early September 2026.

During the symposium, Yandangshan UNESCO Global Geopark formally signed sister geopark
cooperation agreements with Jeonbuk West Coast UNESCO Global Geopark in South Korea
and Rinjani-Lombok UNESCO Global Geopark in Indonesia.

This followed its sister geopark partnership with Kütralkura UNESCO Global Geopark
in Chile last year. Yandangshan has further expanded its international partnership
network, bringing the total number of its international sister geoparks to eight.

Under the agreements, the parties will carry out comprehensive and in-depth cooperation
in geological research, science education, cultural tourism promotion, personnel
exchanges, and other fields, working together to protect global geological heritage
and promote the coordinated development of regional geoparks.

Moreover, the Yandangshan delegation showcased the park’s development appeal and
achievements in an all-round way. During the keynote session, a Yandangshan representative
delivered a presentation, systematically promoting local cultural tourism resources
and detailing the park’s practical achievements in upgrading business formats, community
empowerment, and regional sustainable development.

At the Geopark Fair Exhibition, Yandangshan’s distinctive public science materials,
cultural and creative products, and specialty agricultural products from Yueqing,
such as Yandang Maofeng tea, were displayed together, drawing delegates from many
countries to visit its booth.

Meanwhile, a ceremony was held during the symposium to issue Global Geoparks Network(
GGN) membership certificates, and Yandangshan formally received its GGN membership
certificate.

Guided by the theme "Celebrating Networking in Geotourism: Innovate – Connect – 
Transform," the symposium brought together the geopark community to strengthen collaboration,
share knowledge, and shape a more sustainable future.
