Lingnan: Beauty Beyond Borders | The designer of the Louvre Pyramid in #Paris, eminent architect I. M. Pei, was born in #Guangzhou. The giant ship-shaped design of the Bai'e Tan Greater Bay Area Art Center in Guangzhou symbolizes the #MaritimeSilkRoad, the concept of which was introduced by the French orientalist Edouard Chavannes. These two #artistic #landmarks, one in the East and the other in the West, have emerged as witnesses and narrators of Sino-French #cultural exchanges. #SplendidLingnan
