To celebrate the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and France, as well as the China-France Year of Cultural Tourism, the Hong Kong Palace Museum, the Palace Museum and the Palace of Versailles have co-organised a new special exhibition ‘The Forbidden City and The Palace of Versailles: China-France Cultural Encounters in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries’.
This special exhibition presents nearly 150 treasures from the Palace Museum and the Palace of Versailles, including nine first-grade national treasures from China, highlighting the rich history of mutual respect, inspiration and exchanges in the realms of culture, arts, science and more between the Forbidden City and Versailles – two distinguished World Heritage Sites – during the latter half of the 17th century and throughout the 18th century, showcasing their enduring friendship and a long legacy of admiration.
