The winning entries of the Greater Pearl River Delta (GPRD) Historical Buildings Photography Competition, which were announced in April, will soon go on display. Arranged through the GPRD Cultural Information Website (www.prdculture.org), the competition focused on the historical buildings of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau, and also provided a platform for cultural exchange among photography enthusiasts in the three places.
