Informal visit of two Chinese warships to Vladivostok, Russia finished on Aug 2. The task unit consisting of frigate Louyang and training ship Zheng He was headed by China's Northern Fleet Commander Vice Admiral Tian Zhong.

During the 4-day visit, Chinese official delegation and servicemen took part in festivities of Russian Navy Day and went sightseeing around Vladivostok.

During the visit Chinese sailors chatted with their Russian colleagues and played a friendly soccer game. Locals of Vladivostok were allowed to visit Chinese warships.
