A museum exhibiting over 500 Olympic souvenirs was launched
recently in Xiamen, southeastern China's Fujian province.
The 500 souvenirs include Olympic torches, mascots, memorial
coins and badges, mostly donated by Wu Jiangguo, a member of the
International Olympic Committee (IOC) and chairman of the
International Boxing Federation (IBF). He also invested to built
the museum itself.
The museum has been authorized to become a member of the
International Olympic Museum Union, a first for China.
