The Hall of Mental Cultivation has been closed to the public since December, 2015, for a major renovation. However, its cultural relics have been exhibited in cities like Nanjing, Shenyang, Jinan, and Hong Kong.

The renovation is to last until 2020.

Meanwhile, to offer a more immersive experience to visitors, the Palace Museum developed the digital exhibition in 2017, and it was showcased in the museum's digital gallery.

The upcoming exhibition tour will start from in L+ Mall in Shanghai, but the later destinations of the tour has not been announced.
