Lonely Planet review for Historical Museum of China

This glossy museum of Chinese art spans jade artefacts and Neotlithic archaeological finds to terracotta warriors and Qing-dynasty porcelain, much of it on loan from the Palace Museum in Beijing. There's also a large gift shop.

The jauntily painted Kōshi-byō (長崎孔子廟) shrine nearby claims to be the only Confucian shrine built by and for Chinese outside of China, and the statues of sages in its courtyard certainly make you feel like you've journeyed across the sea. The original 1893 building was destroyed by fire following the A-bomb explosion.
