Bonham Rd Mon-Sat 9.30am-6pm, Sun 1.30-5.30pm. Free. Around 1km west from Tai Ping Shan (you’ll need to take a taxi), The University of Hong Kong Museum and Art Gallery features an outstanding collection of Chinese art in two adjacent buildings. The collection is continually rotated, but permanent displays include a group of Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368 AD) Nestorian bronze crosses, which belonged to a heretic Christian group living in northern China.

The ceramics collection ranges from Neolithic pottery through to the later ruling dynasties; items from the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) include some lively tri-colour-glazed camels, horses and pottery.

Also on show is white ceramic ware from the Sui and Song dynasties, including two Song Dynasty porcelain pillows, both decorated with black and white line-drawings. More colourful are the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1645-1911) Dynasty bowls and dishes, displaying rich blues, greens and reds. In other sections, you can find a selection of woodcarvings and some furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties, laid out as a room, along with a broad range of decorative items and Chinese paintings of the period.
