The Fuchun River runs through Zhejiang province and is known as a waterway that commands beautiful views of misty mountains and serene villages and towns. It has inspired artists throughout the centuries to create paintings and literary works.

A joint calligraphy exhibition at Hong Kong City Hall, until Tuesday, introduces to the audience the history and cultural lineage of Zhejiang which has been enriched by the river. On show are works by Yang Xiaojun, a noted calligrapher from Fuyang district, along the river, and his disciple Zhao Yu.
