Palace Museum on outreach drive

Very few people have had the luxury of riding a bicycle inside Beijing's Palace Museum. Claude Faubert is one of them. The director-general of the Canada Science and Technology Museum, based in Ottawa, is also a coordinator for international training at the Palace Museum.

Faubert had no idea how staff members of the Palace Museum got around in a palace that big. The problem was solved soon after he arrived in November.

"They gave me a bike and said 'come with us'. It was great. I felt very special indeed," says Faubert.
