China's Silk over 5,000 Years, an exhibition of the country's silk culture at the Russian Historical Museum, will mark the closing of the festival.
A silk embroidery handicraft named "Lion King" is one of the most extraordinary works to be displayed at the exhibition. It's made by Xinchang Dali Silk Company, a silk producer based in Shaoxing, East China's Zhejiang Province. Dali has invited famous embroidery craftsmen from Suzhou to design the product, and it took one year to complete it. The lion looks quite lively, so the experts from China Silk Museum selected it at the first glance for "Year of China".
