Cultural relics are physical reminders of what different peoples valued in the past and
continue to value now. Without these relics, we could not cherish cultural traditions as
much or appreciate the lives of the people who practiced those traditions. Although
we may not often consider it, cultural relics are not only the possession of one culture.
In a larger sense, it can be said that they belong to all peoples. For these reasons, this
unit describes cultural relics not from China but other places. Looking at it from
another angle, it can also be said that cultural relics preserves some aspect of cultural
heritage and each relic, regardless of whether the same hands created many examples
of it, is still a unique cultural expression and contribution.
