Approximately 1,000 Chinese books— revolving around topics such as economics, agricultural technology, traditional Chinese medicine, and Chinese language learning— were showcased at the fair and left a deep impression on visitors.

At the China International Book Trading Corporation's exhibition area, former Peruvian Ambassador to China Luis Quesada purchased a book "Cuando China se encuentra con el Perú" ("When China Meets Peru") published by the New World Press under CICG. He underscored the profound friendship between Peru and China, expressing his hope that the book fair would continue to preserve and promote their bilateral connection.
