An exhibition of Chinese mural art — presented for the first time overseas at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris — allowed visitors to directly experience the beauty of ancient Chinese thought, art and religion.
The Yongle Palace exhibition showcases mural art, color exploration, digital restoration, reproduction of costumes and the display of cultural and creative artifacts.
The palace, located in Ruicheng county of Yuncheng, Shanxi province, was built during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). It was designated a national key cultural heritage conservation unit in 1961.
