Wow, honestly that was the best museum in Asia/the world I've ever been to. The Japanese building/exhibit had incredible artwork as well as historic swords and armor. My favourite was the Asian building; there was such an array of Chinese and Indian historical artifacts. They really painted a picture of how China and India influenced surrounding countries/cultures, that was very cool. Really enjoy...
