The Hidden Chinese Heritage – Mystery Dongba

With a history of over 1,000 years, Dongba culture is a unique cultural heritage known by only a small number of people around the world. Dongba culture is an important part of the cultures of China's 56 ethnic groups and shares common origins with the Tibetan Bon religion.

This exhibition will introduce this little-known Dongba heritage through its pictographic script, paintings, costumes, and children's colouring activities. Like Indigenous cultures, Dongba culture includes spiritual practices that reflect a deep relationship between humans, nature, and the land.
