Xi'an Beilin Museum

The museum visit was such a treat for the artists (and also those who don't make or study art, but do appreciate it) in our group. We got to practice calligraphy, as you can see from the pictures. Along with painting, calligraphy is highly revered in Chinese culture. Artists are also greatly valued and there is much national pride in the artistic works of China. - Peggy
