A total of 101 cultural relics have finally come back home after decades or even a hundred years' overseas vagrant living, and will be displayed to public at Tibet's regional museum, according to the event planner.
The cultural relics exhibited are of high artistic, religious and cultural value with delicate looks, including 39 golden and bronze Buddha statues, 39 Buddhist instruments, 23 pieces of Thangka works as well as articles of daily use for Tibetans.
These cultural relics are now collected by Chinese individuals or groups after coming back from Britain, the U.S. and India.
The vagrant life of these relics was mostly resulted from the Western imperialists' plunder a century ago, said Yi Xi, planner of the exhibition and vice president of China Association for Preservation of Ethnic Minorities'Relics.
Every cultural relic has its own legendary and tortured experience.
