The first Huaqing Palace "Nishang Cup" Photography Exhibition, hosted by Huaqing Palace Scenic Area and Xi'an Mass Art Museum, opened on Feb 9 in Xi'an, Shaanxi province in Northwest China.

The exhibition features 100 outstanding works from the "Nishang Cup" photography competition at the Huaqing Palace. Classical architecture, natural landscapes and Hanfu portraits are ingeniously integrated in these pieces.

The young photographers inject new vitality into traditional photographic themes with innovative perspectives and modern techniques, allowing the ancient palace to shine with a unique brilliance in the new era.
