Peng Liyuan, Chinese President Xi Jinping's wife, and Melania Trump, US President Donald Trump's wife, visited the National Museum of Asian Art in Washington, D.C., on Thursday. CGTN's Yang Xinmeng spoke with the museum's director, Chase Robinson, who accompanied Peng Liyuan and Melania Trump during the tour and introduced them to the Chinese artifacts.
The Chinese relics here have long served as witnesses to cultural exchanges between China and the United States. Provenance research helps trace the histories of cultural objects and, in some cases, facilitates their return to their places of origin. Earlier this month, the United States returned 64 cultural relics and paleontological fossils to China. Some objects travel across borders, and sometimes they find their way back. Behind every relic is a shared feeling: as the Chinese and American peoples come to know each other's culture and philosophy, they discover many shared hopes and aspirations.
