China Pictorial

[5] In June 1950, Mao Zedong changed the title of the magazine to China Pictorial.

In the late 1950s a member of the Sweden China Association in Stockholm, Nils Holmberg, was hired by the Chinese authorities to translate the content of the magazine into Swedish.

[7] Since its establishment, the magazine has never ceased publication, and was published as usual during the Cultural Revolution.

[8] At the end of 2001, China Pictorial was selected as one of the "China Periodical Phalanx" evaluated by the National Press and Publication Administration, and was awarded the title of "Periodical with Double Effect on Social and Economic Benefits".

In October 2002, China Pictorial released its Korean language edition.
