Description

Let Origins of Chinese Culture guide you through the perplexing maze of all things Chinese. Pick up interesting facts about the “Four Treasures of the Study” — the brush, ink, paper and inkstone — which form the cornerstone of Chinese culture. Be enthralled by the charming stories of Chinese icons: - Cao Cao, who hinted that he wants a door widened just by writing a character on the door. - Shi Kuang, whose music was said to resurrect the dead. - Wu Daozi, who never completed his paintings for fear that they would come alive. You will be amazed by the wisdom and exquisite allure of Chinese culture, and be treated to insights into Chinese calligraphy, painting, weiqi, xiangqi and music.
