The paper deals with acquisition of information related to China and Chinese culture by Czech students of the Chinese language with regard to the specifics of language education of adult people. The aim was to prove whether a relation between the intercultural education and the acquisition of information about China exists, based on hypotheses. As a result of the questionnaire campaign, 48 filled-in forms in total were returned by Czech students of the Chinese language, which is a significant proportion of the total number of students of the Chinese language in language schools in the Czech Republic. It can be considered a pre-research, allowing to formulate further research hypotheses.
