    After the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1911, many of the treasures housed at Mukden Palace were lost. However, the number of antiques in its collection has since increased from several thousand pieces in the early 1950s to more than 100,000 pieces.

    Han Zhanming, director of the Capital Museum, says the exhibits are intertwined with the history of the Mukden Palace and, to some extent, demonstrate the life, etiquette, cultural beliefs and ethnic features of the Qing era.

    Tian hopes that the exhibition will raise people's awareness of the Shenyang Palace Museum.

    "The architectural style of the Mukden Palace is an important part of the history and culture of the Qing Dynasty before it moved to Beijing," she adds.

    The exhibition, From Shengjing: Household Items of the Qing Royal Court, will run through Dec 2.
