China Cultural Heritage website opens

June 19, 2008

[photopress:IT_China_cultural1.jpg,full,alignright]As an important part of this year's Cultural Heritage Day activities, the China Cultural Heritage website has opened in Beijing. Click HERE to visit the site.

The report says: 'The China Cultural Heritage website, created by the China Relic Information Consultation Center, using modern information technology and network communication tools and backed by digital Chinese cultural heritage information, will provide the public services such as popularizing Chinese cultural heritage information, multimedia displays and interactive communication on the Internet.

All of which is correct.

What the news item fails to mention is that it is all in Chinese. There is no English on the site.

That may be a temporary phase. One would hope so because the site looks totally and utterly fascinating.
