went to visit the chinese heritage museum some time back ($10 per person) and just had fun walking around the 3 storey museum. it's not super super interesting, because i guess i grew up learning this history so everything pretty much seemed familiar. but what i liked about the tour was in particular seeing the clothes that hang in their tiny room-houses. back then it seems clothes were made in pastels, earthy tones and browns. the mix of european and chinese dressing was really cool too. makes me want to search up those old chinese films. anyone got any idea what movies depict characters dressed in this western-eastern mixed style?

Well, since this was my first visit I enjoyed every bit of my China Heritage Tour. It was simply amazing! The history of the country is so rich that I couldn't finish taking down notes on the different places we visited...
