China's National Cultural Heritage Administration welcomed back 41 cultural relics and artifacts on Tuesday, which were illegally exported from the country and retrieved from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office in New York.
The returned items encompass a diverse range of cultural treasures, including pottery, jade, bronze ware, and Buddhist artifacts. Notably, the collection features a bronze \"money tree\" adorned with a ceramic base, as well as a pottery figurine depicting an entertainer.
This significant repatriation underscores China's ongoing commitment to preserving its rich cultural heritage and addressing the illicit trade of valuable historical items.
