The day started with a visit to the Asian Civilization Museum to view the 'Kangxi Emperor Exhibition'. It was an eye-opening experience for many of us - the guides who took us through the exhibit were really good and provided lots of interesting stories about the Life and Times of the great Emperor Kangxi........one person we will regard with great respect from now on....what with his three Empresses and 55 'official' children..........
We also visited the Peranakan Museum with its ten galleries featuring all aspect of the Peranakan culture. Also on show was a special exhibit 'Baba Bling' - featuring many interesting displays of Peranakan jewellry.
