Gangbuk Culture Foundation brings Chengdu cultural exhibition to Seoul

The Gangbuk Culture Foundation will host the exhibition More Than Pandas: Chengdu in Seoul from Wednesday through the end of the month. This collaborative project is a joint effort with the Cultural Center of the Chinese Embassy in Korea and Chengdu's Cultural, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau. The exhibition showcases the culture and arts of Chengdu, the capital of China's Sichuan province, which is renowned for its giant pandas.

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

It also represents the first standalone cultural exhibition by Chengdu's institutions in Korea. An opening ceremony will be held at 10:30.
