Chinese houses (KMKG, Brussel, 20-2-2008)

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Other
There aren't many really old houses in China because most were made of wood but there are a lot of ceramic models! These models were made as gifts for the dead. This exhibit shows models from the museum in Henan.

The models are really detailed and tell us a lot about Chinese architecture and live itself. And they are very beautiful too ;-)
It's a great exhibit so if you have a chance to go: check it out.
There are more pictures on the site (Dutch and French version) : http://www.kmkg-mrah.be/newnl/index.asp?id=1449

Exhibit un till 20-4-2008. Also check the other exhibits in the KMKG-MRAH and of course their permanent collection!
