An exhibition featuring ancient Buddhist art from Dunhuang in northwest China's Gansu Province is touring Taiwan.

The exhibition opened in Taipei on Tuesday, the last stop of its three-leg tour across the island, and will run through June 21.

Displays include high-definition replicas of the Dunhuang grotto murals, sculptures, musical equipment, models of Buddhist towers, and photos of the decades-long exploration of the Dunhuang grottos.

Hou Liming, a fellow at Dunhuang Research Academy, said the items on show were chronologically organized and represent only a tiny part of the entire Dunhuang relic collection.

"Our friends from Taiwan are welcome to visit Dunhuang," he said.

Hou also gave a public lecture on Dunhuang art on the sidelines of the exhibition.

Since 2016, institutes across the Taiwan Strait have been cooperating to organize Dunhuang art exhibitions in Taiwan.
