China's Cultural and Natural Heritage Day is observed on June 14 this year. The theme for the cultural relics and museology sector is "Revitalizing Cultural Heritage to Showcase New Brilliance."
One such treasure is the painting A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains, crafted over 900 years ago by Northern Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng. It is renowned as one of China's ten most celebrated ancient masterpieces and is currently preserved in the Palace Museum in Beijing.
