The Suzhou Museum is truly a work of art in and of itself, a masterpiece of design by master of architecture I.M. Pei. The building is a stark contrast to the ancient Chinese art that it contains, combing modern elements with ancient ideas of feng shui.

But the collection is not too strong -- if you've done, say, the Shanghai Museum, then it won't add much. So it's a nice oasis if you're already down in... More
