The National Barrier-Free Environment Exhibition Hall, showcasing the widespread adoption of accessible designs across society, including aboard high-speed trains and at banks, opened in Beijing on Wednesday.
After two years of preparation, it was unveiled to the public at the Beijing Planning Exhibition Hall just ahead of the anniversary of the China Accessibility Construction Law taking effect on Sept 1.
The China Association of Volunteers for Persons with Disabilities and Beijing Planning Exhibition Hall jointly launched the hall as a platform for patriotic education. The exhibition is also expected to raise public awareness about accessibility and demonstrate and promote relevant technologies.
