Hangzhou, capital city of Zhejiang province, East China, was the political, economic and cultural center more than 800 years ago, when it served as the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279).

A gathering of prominent intellectuals, scholars, artists and luminaries in other fields elevated the city's culture and art to a new peak, casting a long-standing influence in Chinese history that has lasted to present day.

To mark this booming scene, five exhibitions opened at the art museum of China Academy of Art in Hangzhou on Saturday.
