Beijing's Palace Museum Celebrates 100 Years
Beijing is abuzz as the Palace Museum marks its centenary with Century of Stewardship: From the Forbidden City to the Palace Museum. Spanning three immersive themes—A Lineage of Scholarship, A Century of Heritage, and A World of Splendor—this exhibition brings together 200 cultural relics in one grand showcase.
Standout pieces include the famed scroll Along the River During the Qingming Festival, offering a panoramic glimpse into urban life in the Song dynasty, and the spirited painting Five Oxen, a testament to ancient artistry. Each section delves into the museum's evolution: from early scholarly pursuits to modern conservation efforts and its growing role on the global stage.
For young global citizens, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and culture seekers alike, this exhibition is more than a display—it's a story of passionate stewardship, innovation in preservation, and the enduring power of heritage. Whether you're in Beijing or exploring virtually, Century of Stewardship invites you to connect with a century of care behind these timeless treasures.
