During the 1950s, Dunhuang Research Academy mounted an exhibition in the gallery atop the Meridian Gate (Wu men) in the Forbidden City. Seventy years later, the Palace Museum and Dunhuang once again gather as a duo of cultural pillars to transcend time and space and combine unique ancient and contemporary charisma to offer visitors with an opportunity to deeply understand the great fusion, creativity, and vitality of the Chinese people. The exhibition is divided into three sections—“Splendors of the Silk Road”, “Myriad Phenomena in the Mortal Realm”, and “Protection of the Legacy”—with displays of 188 pieces of cultural relics from the Gansu Province and collection of the Palace Museum as well as hand-painted reproductions of Dunhuang murals, high-fidelity digital reproductions of murals, and reproductions of caves 285, 220, and 320, etc. These offerings afford visitors with a close-up experience of a millennium of two of the greatest representatives of Chinese civilization while presenting the best of the two sites’ research on cultural heritage protection.

As important guardians of culture, the Palace Museum and Dunhuang Research Academy have witnessed the extraordinary development of China’s cultural heritage industries. The exhibition’s third section, “Protection of the Legacy”, presents archives, media, documents, and cultural artifacts as a demonstration of the Party and Nation’s leadership and concern for the issue. As two great institutions of preserving world cultural heritage, the Palace Museum and Dunhuang Research Academy have made important contributions to cultural heritage research and the promotion of cultural legacies since before the establishment of New China.

Houhai is the largest of the three lakes, along with Qianhai ‘Front Lake’ and Xihai ‘Western Lake’, that comprise Shichahai, the collective name for the three northernmost lakes in central Beijing Houhai is the largest of the three lakes, along with Qianhai ‘Front Lake’ and Xihai ‘Western Lake’, that comprise Shichahai, the collective name for the three northernmost lakes in central Beijing. Since the early 2000s, the hutong neighbourhood around Houhai has become known for its nightlife as many residences along the lake shore have been converted into restaurants, bars, and cafes. The area is especially popular with foreign tourists visiting Beijing and is also often visited by the expatriate community and the younger generations of locals.

Historically The artificial lake of Houhai was built during the Yuan dynasty, and formed part of the ancient waters of the dynasty. The area was gentrified by the Yuan, and was exclusively reserved to the royal family. Built in the Yuan winter capital of Dadu, today it is located in the center of Beijing. It faces the Forbidden City, and today is renowned as a place of relaxation for Beijingers, and for its nightlife

Also the street network of Houhai was created during the Yuan dynasty. The Yuan’s 787-meter long Nanluogu Lane is considered one of the oldest hutongs in Beijing, located in one of its oldest neighbourhoods. Many buildings are very old, and exhibit the traditional Beijing architectural features… for the November in the early winter; there is no trace of the hustle and bustle of the alleys in the narrow alleys of Houhai. Being in it, it seems as if your thoughts are flying to the horizon with the birds in the sky….

This time, the creative work for the Shanghai’s Donghua University in designing for “The Third Season of the New Palace Museum” the collection is called “Lotte Echoes” In the design of the suit, we have evolved the shape of the “curved stream” to form the curve of the coat neckline and coat pocket cover. At the same time, the suit collar is designed as a traditional Chinese collar; the coat has more streamers. Functionally, it can be connected to the body through a hidden buckle, which can be removed to form a waistband, or a streamer can be tied up to adjust the waist, reflecting Su Shi’s free-spirited outlook on life.

In the Suits, sweaters …..The color matching of lotus root pink and khaki is also being perfected… In the design of the sweater, we extracted the water ripples of “Red Cliff Picture” and hand-embroidered the pattern on the sweater, which intuitively reflects the characteristics of the Forbidden City……

上新了旧宫 During this episode ….   Of Cultural Creation is a “Jiang Yue Yi Su” clothing series designed by students of Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. The color matching of the earth tone of the clothing is taken from the famous painting “Chibi Tu”. At the same time, the Jiangtao pattern in the painting is extracted, embroidered on the outer layer of the coat, and attached to the inner layer of the coat to form an internal and external echo; borrowing from the beauty of the “Curved Water Flowing Vessel” of the Pavilion, Applying its sense of fluency to the coat layout, as the clothes swing, it is flexible and elegant, revealing a sense of open-mindedness. People who wear the “Jiang Yue Yi Su” coat will take the most optimistic and confident steps and embark on the brightest and most open road.

The student designers have deconstructed the Jiang Tao pattern in the “Red Cliff Picture” on the inner and outer layers of the coat in response to each other, and blended the lines of the “curved water flow” in the Qianlong Garden into the tailoring of the coat, revealing every detail A sense of open-mindedness [Heart] I hope that anyone who wears the “Jiang Yue Yi Su” clothing series of this issue of cultural and creative industries can take the most optimistic and confident steps like this cat and embark on the brightest and most open road…
