The Forbidden City and the World:Cultural Encounters

Location: Hong Kong Palace Museum

Event date: 03/06/2026 - 06/03/2028

The Ming (1368–1644) and Qing (1644–1911) dynasties inherited the established systems of governance and moral lineage of earlier periods. As the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Forbidden City not only served as the centre of political power but also provided a platform for interactions between China and the wider world. Its architecture, artefacts, and stories carry the imprint of history, and its history attests to more than five centuries of cross-cultural encounters, involving the flow of goods, technologies, arts, ideas, and cultures. Together, these exchanges inspired creativity and transformation in world civilisations.
