About 100 pieces of ancient clothing stretching through the history of Xinjiang, collected by the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Museum, will be exhibited in Beijing. On display are simple woollens from pre-Qin days, silk and cotton dresses made during the Han (206 BC-AD 220) and the Jin (AD 265-420) dynasties, and folk costumes of the later dynasties. Due to its geographical position, Xinjiang has witnessed many migrations between West and East, making it the convergence of different cultures and civilizations. The evolution of clothes here opens a door to the mysterious and glorious culture.

9 am-5 pm, Dec 29-Jan 16. National Museum of China, east side of Tian'anmen Square, 16 East Chang'an Avenue, Dongcheng district. 010-6511-6188
