Lots of Chinese cultural and art treasures have been put on show in many parts of the world this past year, showcasing the beauty of the Chinese civilization on the global stage and promote cultural exchanges.

Last December, New Zealand's national museum in Wellington started a four-month exhibition(展览)of the Terracotta Army. Early on the opening day, local people lined up to see some life-size clay models of Chinese soldiers, horses and chariots that were meant to guard the tomb of Emperor Qinshihuang about 2,000 years ago. More than 160 pieces of ancient Chinese antiques were also on show, providing visitors with a view of the long-standing beauty of Asian civilization.

It was a "once in a lifetime" experience, said Rebecca Rice, the exhibitions curator. At the opening ceremony（仪式）New Zealand Tourism Minister Kelvin Davis said “the exhibition will encourage（鼓励）more New Zealanders to go on the journey to understand China, one of our most important partners .”

What's more, some museums have explored new ways and techniques to add more fun to visitors experience of enjoying Chinese cultural relics. On Jan 30, ahead of the Chinese Spring Festival, a creative Chinese cultural exhibition was held at the Guimet National Museum of Asian Arts in Paris offering people an experience with Chinese New Year customs and rituals. Through a China-developed Wechat( 微信)app on a smart phone, visitors could design clothes using beautiful patterns of ancient paintings from the Mogao Grottoes and wear their self-designed clothes to celebrate the traditional Chinese festival.

Digital technologies (数字技术)have also created new ways to exhibit treasures from China. In early 2019, China’s tech giant Tencent( i and Prances union of national museums(RMN) reached an agreement to enhance cultural exchanges, traditional cultural inheritance and innovation.

Under the cooperative framework, the two sides organized a number of exhibitions to present the Chinese treasures collected by French museums in digital forms online.

Patrick Dambron, chairman of France-china Art and Culture Academy (AFCAC), said Internet technologies have enabled cultural heritage to regain its vitality, and encouraged younger generations to inject vigor into modern and traditional arts and culture.

Dragon Dance (舞龙) is a kind of traditional dance in Chinese culture. It has been spread all

over China and to the whole world.

Traditionally, dragons were made of wood and cloth. However, in the modem times, dragons are much lighter because they are made of lighter materials like plastics. The length (长度) of dragons can be from around 25 to 35 meters for acrobatic (杂技的) models, and up to 50 to 70 meters for the largest parade (游行) styles because people believe that the longer the dragon is, the more luck

it will bring. A small organization cannot run a very long dragon because it requires great human power, much money and special skills.

The Dragon Dance itself began during the Han Dynasty. And it was started by the Chinese who had shown great respect towards the dragon. It was already a popular event during the Song Dynasty. At that time, it became a popular activity like the Lion Dance. People could often see it during some important festivals. In the Qing Dynasty, the Dragon Dance Team of Fuzhou was

invited to put on a show in Beijing. And the emperor (皇帝) spoke highly of it. The emperors of
