Myanmar State Peace and Development Council Vice-Chairman Maung Aye ended a two-day visit Thursday to Xi'an, capital of China's northwestern Shaanxi Province.

Maung Aye was received by Shaanxi Governor Yuan Chunqing. Both sides agreed that China and Myanmar, as friendly neighbors, should strengthen cooperation in fields like technology, education and economy.

During his stay in Xi'an, Maung Aye visited the terracotta warriors in the mausoleum of Qinshihuang, the first emperor of a united China, and the Famen Temple, which had kept a finger bone of the founder of Buddhism since 874 AD.

Maung Aye came to China for an official visit scheduled for June 15-20 at the invitation of Vice President Xi Jinping. He is scheduled to head for Hangzhou in the eastern Zhejiang Province.
