Nepal President Bidya Devi Bhandari returned home Wednesday on completion of her eight-day official visit to China during which both the sides signed various agreements, including transit and transport between the two countries.
Bhandari and her Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping discussed ways to further strengthen and consolidate the bilateral ties and "mutually beneficial partnership" between the two countries, according to a Foreign Ministry statement.
The President held delegation level talks with Xi on April 29. During the meeting, Bhandari invited Xi to Nepal.
Accepting the invitation, President Xi said he attaches great importance to visiting Nepal and visit the country at a convenient time.
The other areas that figured during the talks for bilateral cooperation include education, tourism, trade, investment, and cross-border economic zones.
Xi assured China's support to make 'Visit Nepal Year 2020' a success by encouraging more Chinese tourists to visit the country, the statement said.
