Chinese characters as art
Very cool. I love modern art and it was eye opening to see the contemporary rendition of Chinese characters.

It's okay
If you like Chinese calligraphy that's carved in wood, this is a must see for you. My personal highlight was magnificently saving myself from falling down the steps because I was too busy looking at my phone

Artistic calligraphy
This is a small building with 2 storey, displaying Asian calligraphy artworks. The exhibits are predominantly Chinese. Since I could understand Chinese writings, I could appreciate better the calligraphy being carved on the woods. There were much creativity in transforming the basic Chinese characters in art form. 10 to 15 mins is sufficient to briefly walk through the 2 floors. I visited this place since it was included in the combo ticket (100 rmb). Else entrance fee is 10 rmb, can give it a miss.
