Two experts in the field of archaeology, also deputies to China's 14th National People's Congress (NPC), noted the importance of the preservation of cultural relics at the Deputies' Corridor ahead of the opening meeting of the second session of the 14th NPC at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Tuesday.
A new building of the Yinxu Museum in Anyang, central China's Henan Province, officially opened to the public, demonstrating the bronze culture of 3,000 years ago, said He Yuling, deputy director of the Anyang workstation of the Institute of Archaeology, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
The Yin Ruins is the first documented late Shang Dynasty capital site in China, as confirmed by archaeological excavations and oracle bone inscriptions. It is also the ancient capital site with the highest frequency of archaeological excavations and the longest duration of exploration in China.
He welcomed the public to the museum and hoped to tell the story of these cultural heritages to more people.
"It's important and urgent to protect the grottoes," said Hang Kan, head of the Yungang Grottoes Research Institute.
Yungang Grottoes in north China's Shanxi Province is a historical monument of cultural exchanges between China and the West in ancient times. The site was inscribed on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage list in 2001.
Hang added that in future work, the protection of the grottoes will remain a top priority, and modern techniques will be applied to the protection of the important cultural site, so that more people can feel the charm of traditional Chinese culture.
