More than 400 copies of ancient Chinese calligraphy and paintings collected by the National Palace Museum in Taipei are now on show in Guilin, a famous tourism city in southwest China.

Included in the show are a number of art works more than 1,000 years old. The famous paintings and calligraphy works are described as "top treasures" of the palace museum in Taipei.

The exhibition opened earlier this week and will last until February 14.
