Today Art Museum in Beijing will open a ukiyo-e exhibition on March 12, displaying works by Hokusai, Utagawa Kuniyoshi and Utagawa Sadahide, to name a few. 

The exhibition will bring viewers to the booming streets of Tokyo in the Edo period, which boasted charming views all year round, to experience the diverse lifestyles of the residents, and to hear the mythical tales of monsters and ghosts.
