www.chinanews.cn 2005-03-30 13:49:22
The 3-day Cultural Exhibition of Chinese footwear opened in Changsha on
Mar. 27th. The exhibition displays more than 70 pairs of shoes
representative of various periods in Chinese history, from Pre-Qin times
(before 248 B.C.) to the republican period (1911-1949), in eight major
categories, including royal-style shoes, ancient leather shoes,
hand-embroidered shoes and straw sandals. Shoes were generally referred
to as "footwear" in ancient China, and, like all apparel, carried great
cultural significance. Pictured, royal-style shoes.
