The opening ceremony is taking place in Beijing Sunday for China's Tibetan Culture Museum, which will showcase traditional Tibetan Culture and History.

The opening marks the 51st anniversary of democratic reform in the Tibet Autonomous Region.

The exhibition will showcase more than 2,000 archives, including cultural relics, Buddhist Statues, religious objects and restored landscapes.

The exhibits demonstrate the great changes undergone in Tibet since 1959, when serfdom was abolished. They also show how Tibet has been a part of China since the Yuan Dynasty, about 800 years ago.

There are scenes showing serfs being exploited by their owners, and how they were liberated 50 years ago. The exhibition was organized and sponsored by the China Tibetology Research Center.
