HK exhibition shows shared culture

Bernadette Linn Hon-ho, secretary for development, says this exhibition is an important project jointly conceived, planned, and promoted by the Development Bureau and the National Cultural Heritage Administration, bringing together cultural resources from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

She adds that it is the first project following the signing of two significant documents last year: a framework agreement to further promote cultural heritage exchange and collaboration on archaeology and built heritage between the mainland and Hong Kong, as well as a MOU between Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong to jointly promote a culturally vibrant Bay Area under the Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Linn says that the exhibition's title reflects the continuity between the Lingnan traditional architectural culture in the Greater Bay Area and the Central Plains culture, embodying the integrated diversity of Chinese culture.
