The year 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative. In the past decade, China and countries along the Belt and Road have achieved common prosperity. Juan Carlos, who lives in Magara, Spain, placed an order for a ceiling light made in China on AliExpress, an e-commerce platform. The next day, a Courier rang his doorbell and delivered the product to him. What a surprise! Logistics time faster than imagined! Juan Carlos commented.

This ceiling light is issued by the Thousand Elephant Box logistics warehouse in Alcala, Spain. Before that, it was transported by land to Xi 'an from Guangdong, China, and then took the China-Europe Railway Chang 'an, after 20 days to the logistics warehouse, and like more than 100,000 other products, it was sent to consumers across Europe.

This fast shopping experience has benefited from the logistics dividend brought by the decade-old China-Europe freight train. In 2013, China put forward the Belt and Road Initiative, and China-Europe freight trains have been running like steel camel trains on the Silk Road. In the past 10 years, China-Europe freight trains have connected 108 cities in China and 208 cities in 25 European countries. Editor/Xu Shengpeng
