An exhibition on Chinese intangible cultural heritage protection opened at the China National Arts and Crafts Museum in Beijing on July 30, and will run until June 2025.

This exhibition showcases more than 600 objects dedicated to both national and world heritage. It offers visitors the opportunity to personally engage with different intangible cultural heritage skills. For example, almost all children visiting the exhibition enjoy putting on lion heads used in lion dance performances, and having their photos taken while wearing them.
