Visitors to the exhibition will also learn about how the museum has been cooperating with countries and regions along the ancient Silk Road through online platforms and international exhibitions and activities.
The Silk Road Online Museum is a digital museum initiated by the national silk museum in association with 40 other museums in China and overseas. An online curating competition for 2022 was launched on April 15 to showcase collections of the museums involved in the project.

At present, the competition has aroused the attention and participation of more than 120 colleges and universities, and more than 20 museums and designers. More than 600 teams have signed up, with the total number of participants exceeding 1,000.
