They were in the UK as part of a trip organised by ASDAN China Seed International, an educational and charitable organisation that takes Chinese students abroad on educational programmes.
Anastasia Kornienko, ASDAN Programme Coordinator and Academic Manager, said: "It’s the first time we’ve organised such a trip to Bristol and we wanted to show the students what a beautiful city Bristol is. We hope to make it an annual event because it’s an amazing university and a great opportunity to learn more about studying in the UK."
Tours of the University’s 215ft Wills Memorial Building allow the public to see behind the grand facade and experience the splendour of the Great Hall, Council Chamber and ornate libraries.
The students on the ASDAN programme were also given a talk by the University's International Office, designed to give them an overview of opportunities to study at Bristol.
