The very first historic port of call of the Chinese Navy ships in London.

Well, a small step yet it takes century-long to accomplish...
the Chinese Navy ships do take very long time to be able to return those hospitalities as shown by the numerous past ports of calls by the many British Naval ships to mainland China...
In this regard it's really showing up something... the changes of time

Chinese navy flotilla in Thailand for friendly visit before it completes the record-breaking journey

Flotilla's landmark tour nears end

Chinese Navy convoy arrives in Thailand on record-breaking journey

The longest journey by a Chinese Navy convoy nears completion, with a flotilla arriving on Wednesday in Thailand, its final stop before heading home.
Three Chinese naval vessels－CNS Changchun, a Type 052C guided-missile destroyer; CNS Jinzhou, a Type 054A guided-missile frigate; and CNS Chaohu, a Type 903A replenishment ship－began a four-day goodwill visit to Sattahip on Wednesday morning.
At a welcome ceremony, Rear Admiral Shen Hao, commander of the flotilla, said the visit was designed to strengthen bilateral relations and boost cooperation.
The Chinese Navy will continue to work with the Royal Thai Navy in safeguarding regional peace and stability, he said.
Representatives from the Thai navy, the Chinese embassy and local Chinese enterprises as well as Chinese students at Thai universities were given a guided tour of the visiting vessels.
During the visit, the two sides plan to hold open houses, entertainment activities, commanders' meetings and joint exercises, according to the Chinese Navy.
Thailand is the last stop of an almost six-month journey by the Chinese flotilla. It is the longest of its kind by the Chinese Navy.
The flotilla left its home port in Shanghai on April 23, the 68th anniversary of the founding of the People's Liberation Army Navy.
Before arriving in Thailand, it had made goodwill voyages to 19 countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and Oceania, including Vietnam, Iran, Italy and Tanzania.
It is expected to return to China as early as next week, which means the entire voyage will have lasted more than 170 days, according to the PLA Navy. The record currently stands at 168 days, which was fulfilled by three ships from August 2015 to February 2016, straight after a four-month escort mission in the Gulf of Aden.
In another development, the 26th Escort Fleet of the Chinese Navy arrived in London on Tuesday to begin a five-day visit. This is the fourth visit to the United Kingdom by Chinese naval ships and the first time they have called at the British capital.
Before the UK, the fleet stopped at Denmark and Belgium after completing a four-month escort mission in the Gulf of Aden and waters off Somalia, which ended in late August.

The 3rd Zubr class (Bison) air-cushioned landing craft (LCAC) hull no:3327 commissioned
野牛家族的第三艘野牛也就是国产的第一艘野牛气垫船3327艇终于加入人民海军序列，
与3325、3326不同的是3327两侧的风扇壳上的是八一军旗而不是海军旗，而且3327的建造过程也是一波三折，中途几次停工

LONDON, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- China's 26th naval escort fleet departed from here Saturday after a five-day friendly visit to Britain.
Chinese Ambassador to Britain Liu Xiaoming, representatives of the Royal British Navy, and hundreds of overseas Chinese in Britain, attended a farewell ceremony at the West India Docks in east London's Canary Wharf.
This was the first time for Chinese naval ships to pay an official visit to the British capital city.
The fleet, which composed of the guided-missile frigates Huanggang and Yangzhou, and the comprehensive supply ship Gaoyouhu, called at the Canary Wharf in east London Tuesday, the third stop of its global voyage after completing its escort mission in August in Gulf of Aden and Somali waters.
During the stay, some 700 Chinese naval servicemen and their British counterparts visited each other's warships, held a football match friendly, and exchanged views on a broad range of issues from anti-piracy to humanitarian rescues.
The vessels were also open for visit to the public on Wednesday.
The next stop for the Chinese naval escort fleet is France.
China sent its first convoy fleet to the Gulf of Aden and Somali waters for an anti-piracy mission in December 2008 and has since dispatched 27 batches of escort fleets with more than 21,000 personnel to perform the mission. China and the European Union have cooperated closely in the escort mission in recent years.

I'm curious, has CSSC been awarded the 075 LHD contract already? I know PLAN commander Shen Jinlong visited the shipyard back in March but there are conflicting reports ...How would that be possible? Since demonstrators were built for technology demonstration.

I still remember that moment! I almost stopped the breath the moment that I saw the picture of Type052C for the first time! Cannot believe my eyes!!The baby ship had the positions to carry four Aegis-alike radars, but, but it looks too beautiful to be true!!! The similar moment happened again in 2010 when the picture of J20 firstly leaked in internet.
I don't know when such "WOW" moment could happen again. Maybe the time to see PLAN's first 100,000 ton nuclear-powered carrier with EM catapult systems??
