1.Some of the best museums across China are putting their exhibitions online in VR format for

at museums that you would not otherwise have time for?

The Palace Museum

The Palace Museum is known as the Forbidden City. Although the museum is now closed due

to the current epidemic prevention, it's possible for visitors to take a virtual tour of parts of the

museum without actually setting foot on the majestic grounds.

Visitors can browse all the buildings of the Palace Museums. More than 400,000 imperial

artifacts have been digitized online, which can definitely help you gain knowledge and immerse

yourself in a cultural atmosphere.

artistic relics from more than 5,000 years ago to the Qing Dynasty. The marvelous bronze, ceramics,

paintings and calligraphies offer a visual feast for the eyes, and also provide a good chance for

people to learn the profound Chinese history and culture.

If you are into ancient Chinese arts and crafts, then the online Shanghai Museum is definitely

worth your time.

Mogao Caves

The Mogao Caves, also known as Thousand Buddha Grottoes, is a UNESCO World Heritage

Site located near Dunhuang in northwest China’s Gansu Province.

Now visitors can directly browse dozens of classic caves and appreciate the murals( 壁画) by

cave rooms through the “Digital Dunhuang”, the website of the Mogao Caves. The development of

“Digital Dunhuang” not only shocks visitors in a visual sense but also “moves” the Mogan Grottoes

outside.

Madam Kang Jiaqi,the executive director of CHSDF, IN LOVE WITH CHINA explains the

many layers of meaning behind the logo:“The logo adopts the writing style of oracle bone script-

dating back over 3,000 years-carved onto either turtle shell or ox bones.

"The Chinese character for*wind' and the character for"phoenix' are almost the same,with just

one stroke difference.In China's ancient past,the character for"phoenix' was widely considered to

bring peace and happiness and represents good fortune.The character"wind' has a long history and is

also known as a name representing culture and spiritual power."

"Both the characters"wind' and 'phoenix 'share the same component in their characters,which is

also used in the slogan 'In Love With China'.This extraordinary combination represents how experts

lead fashion,which in tum leads culture-and that culture is the basis of creativity.Therefore,it

represents the importance of traditional Chinese culture in global creativity.

"Taking the Chinese oracle bone character of"wind 'and' phoenix' as our logo represents the

beginning of Chinese civilization,which suggests that it can pass on Chinese culture through the

cooperation between the CHSDF and the cooperative platform of global designers,"explains Jiaqi.

Logo artist Sam Chung similarly explains her design process,"The decision of the oracle bone

script of' wind' comes from the root of the character itself.Originated from the character shape of

'phoenix,''wind's 'oracle bone script still presents wonder, despite its more circular shape.The three

tassels(流苏)at the end of the moon-shaped fan further give a feeling of lightness while hinting at

both Eastern and Western flavors."
