The Palace Museum has launched English and Traditional Chinese versions of its youth website, offering interactive cultural content and educational resources to global young audiences.
On July 8, the Palace Museum launched the English and Traditional Chinese versions of its youth website. The new versions aim to bring Chinese traditional culture closer to young audiences around the world.
The youth website was first launched in 2015. Since then, it has focused on integrating cultural knowledge with creative formats. It offers hand-drawn illustrations, interactive maps, games, animations, videos, and digital journals. These features provide an engaging learning experience for young users and help promote cultural understanding.
A professional team from the CIGC Academy of Translation and Interpretation worked on the translations. They adapted the content to match different linguistic and cultural contexts. The new versions include key sections such as news, visiting guides, exhibitions, architecture, collections, and palace history—all translated from the original Simplified Chinese website.
In addition, the Palace Museum-Hong Kong “Culture+Technology Training Camp” 2025 opened on July 7 and will run through August 3. The program focuses on training young talent in the cultural and creative industries. Participants come from four universities in Hong Kong and the Palace Museum. During the camp, they explore how technology can support cultural preservation and innovation.
