Over the past one and a half centuries, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao have grown into major cultural centres of the Lingnan region as a result of the prosperity and stability brought about by the modernisation of China. The development path of the cities and the building of the humanistic spirit have been encapsulated in the precious historical collections of books. At this juncture, the “Heritage and Inclusion: Literary Treasures of the Greater Bay Area” exhibition held at the Hong Kong Central Library (HKCL) hopes to join hands with the “To See the Wood and the Forest: The Senado Library and Ancient Western Books in Early Hong Kong and Macao” organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao SAR Government Public Library and the “Joining Together under the Same Bright Moon -Roving Exhibition on Guangzhou Encyclopaedia in the Greater Bay Area (Hong Kong Stop)” organised by the Research Centre of Guangzhou Encyclopaedia and Guangzhou Library, for unveiling the blood-bound affection for the country and as well as the shared memories under the two major themes.

This exhibition is one of the events of The 4th Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area Culture and Arts Festival.  Hong Kong is hosting the festival for the first time, organising and coordinating over 260 performances and exchange activities to be held across the "9+2" cities of the Greater Bay Area.  The festival aims to showcase the vibrant and diverse cultural richness of the region and foster cultural exchange and cooperation among the cities.

This exhibition is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organising an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about broad and profound Chinese culture.
