Tibet Culture Museum

　　   Tibet Culture Museum is the only national-level Tibetan culture museum in Beijing. Its primary positioning is: a display center for the political, economic, cultural, and social life of Tibet and other Tibetan-inhabited areas; a window for domestic and international audiences to understand Tibetan politics, economy, history, and culture; a base for conducting external publicity, counter-0 campaigns, patriotic education, and inter-ethnic cultural exchange activities; a platform for Tibetan studies research and information resources; and an attraction within the cultural life of the capital.

　　   Its mission is to showcase the long history and unique culture of the Tibetan people through a large number of artifacts and historical materials, “describing” the fundamental trajectory and patterns of production and development of the Tibetan people throughout history; the inseparable and harmonious integration of Han and Tibetan peoples throughout history within the big family of the Chinese nation; examples of the protection of rich Tibetan cultural heritage, both tangible and intangible; the tremendous achievements of Tibet’s leapfrog development since the reform and opening-up under the guidance of central and national policies supporting Tibet; the latest findings from domestic and international Tibetan studies research, and more. It also actively strives to build the Tibet Culture Museum into a comprehensive, uniquely themed, and diverse system—namely, a thematic core exhibition that fully presents the most representative aspects and developmental achievements of Tibetan culture, temporary exhibitions for exchanges and cooperation with museums at home and abroad or in alignment with key national external publicity efforts, as well as demonstration activities that intuitively showcase Tibetan culture, art, and folklore.
