Bigger than expected and take you from his childhood all the way to his 7 voyages. All well explained. The only miss was a guide. Takes a few hours to read all the panels. Definitely worth a visit.

A great experience learning about admiral Zheng Ho and his 7 voyages through Asia to the West. Lots of exhibits, so do budget a little more time.
