Gangbuk Culture Foundation brings Chengdu cultural exhibition to Seoul

The Gangbuk Culture Foundation will present the exhibition "More Than Pandas: Chengdu" at the Gangbuk Jindallae Hall gallery in Seoul. This collaboration between the Cultural Center of the Chinese Embassy in Korea and the Chengdu Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau runs from Wednesday until the end of the month. The exhibition showcases the culture and arts of Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province in southwestern China, renowned for housing the giant pandas.

Visitors will explore Chengdu's rich history as a cultural hub, including the Du Fu Thatched Cottage, where the renowned Tang dynasty poet Du Fu once resided, and the Wuhou Shrine, a temple dedicated to Zhuge Liang, a chancellor in the Shu Han kingdom during China's Three Kingdoms era. This exhibition is the inaugural joint venture under a partnership agreement established by the foundation and the Cultural Center of the Chinese Embassy on August 26.

It also represents the first solo exhibition by cultural institutions representing Chengdu in Korea. An opening ceremony is scheduled to commence at 10:30.
