BUDAPEST, Oct. 7(Xinhuanet)-- A Chinese embroidery
exhibition titled Threads of Light opened here
Friday at the Hungarian National Museum in Budapest.
The exhibition, jointly sponsored by the Chinese
Embassy and the Hungarian National Museum, attracted
more than 200 local people and diplomats as well as
Chinese people living in Budapest on the first day.
Addressing the opening ceremony, Zhu Zushou, Chinese
ambassador to Hungary, said:"Embroidery has a
long history in China and was recorded 4,000 years
ago."
There are varieties of single-side and double-side
embroidery items on display.
According to exhibition sponsors, special methods
are used in knitting instead of knotting for
double-side pieces. The end of silk threads are
invisible and the works are stitched on both sides
and could be appreciated from both sides with the
same excellent effect.
The exhibition is scheduled to conclude on Dec. 4
and will then move to Bulgaria. Enditem
