Confucius Shrine and Chinese Museum Collection

clock 2009-01-01 to 2009-12-31 at 08:30

Chinese Confucius Temple Museum Collection allows a look into the historical accumulation of Confucius's sayings, crafts and objects. Seen here is the ceramic pottery which has a strong Chinese connection. Besides this, bottles of varying shapes and sizes, that must have been used to store medicines, also forms a formidable part of this assembly.

Japan, and especially Nagasaki, has had a long history of exchange, both cultural and economic, with China. This Museum provides some testimony to that exchange. Built originally in 1893, and restored after World War Two, this three-story museum houses hundreds of interesting artifacts relating to Chinese culture. What may be of more interest to the visitor, however, is the exterior: it is quite stunning and exquisite, and makes for some great photographs. Do not let the sculptures and statues pass your notice—as if they could.
