From February to April, 2017, the first round of the exchange exhibitions between China and Japan was held at the Edo-Tokyo Museum, in which collections from the Capital Museum played a major role.

"It was a meaningful start to have a comparative display of the city development between Beijing and Tokyo," says Fujimori from the Edo-Tokyo Museum. "It was even better to see it warmly welcomed by so many young people."

More than 44,000 people visited that exhibition in its 44-day duration.

"Due to the language barrier and different systems, it is not easy to stage mutual exchange exhibitions," Fujimori says. "But our efforts will contribute to helping people from the two cities to improve mutual understanding and friendship.

"I'd be really glad if the exhibition in Beijing will make more Chinese people interested in the history of Sino-Japanese cultural communications," he says.
