NINGBO, Oct. 15 (Xinhua) -- An exhibition of more than 2,000 pieces (sets) of fine cultural relics, original paintings and calligraphic works, multimedia images, grotto reproduction, and interactive installations opened Tuesday at the ongoing sixth World Buddhist Forum in the coastal city of Ningbo, east China's Zhejiang Province.

The exhibits show the essence of the world Buddhist culture in an all-round and multi-dimensional way, and the course of the integration of Buddhism with Chinese culture after its entry into China, the organizers said.

The exhibition is one of major activities during the forum. The exhibition area is the largest among all previous editions, with four thematic sub-exhibitions covering world Buddhist art and culture, and inheritance and development of Buddhism in China.

First launched in 2006, the triennial forum has successfully organized five editions, and evolved into the largest and most influential multilateral platform for international Buddhist-related exchange and dialogue initiated by China. Enditem
