150-course Gujju dinner for Xi at Sabarmati riverfront

September 17, 2014 15:58

Just 30 minutes for Premier Xi and his wife Peng Liyuan to freshen up, following which is MoU time.

When the couple landed at the Ahmedabad airport, apart from a guard of honour, there was a traditional Gujarati dance.

A moonlight dinner (unless there is cloud cover) with Modi awaits Xi on the banks of the Sabarmati river. The 150-course Gujarati banquet will be hosted in a luxury tent. Then the two heads of state take a walk down the riverfront, which has been patterned around the Thames riverfront.
