World Heritage Day is a day to promote the importance of cultural diversity and historical heritage to the world. This year, we will show the world the charm and uniqueness of multiculturalism in the form of paintings. Whether it is ancient architecture, magnificent natural landscapes, traditional handicrafts or the various forms of culture created by mankind, they are all our precious heritage that deserves to be explored and presented with care.
