An exhibition of intangible cultural heritage from China's Yunnan Province kicked off Tuesday at China Cultural Center in Myanmar's Yangon.

Scheduled to run for two days, the exhibition is being held under the theme "Recalling of the Beauty of Colorful Yunnan."

Yunnan, a multi-cultural province in Southwestern China, is rich with intangible cultural heritage, with as many as 26 ethnic groups, out of a total of 56 in China, residing in the province.

Wang Xuehong, wife of Chinese ambassador to Myanmar, expressed her belief that the exhibition could promote cultural exchanges between China and Myanmar.
