About this stone

This collection of three museums celebrates Oriental art and culture with a focus on China and Japan. The complex brings together the Chinese Pavilion, the Japanese Tower, and the Museum of Japanese Art as part of the Royal Museums of Art and History. The spot offers a serene setting with trees that frame views over the pavilion—a peaceful counterpoint to the nearby Atomium. Though the museums were closed for renovations at the time of the stone's placement, the grounds themselves remain a compelling destination for anyone drawn to Asian aesthetics and history.
