What travelers say:
‘The Orient’ is not an area with defined geographical boundaries. The term can mean widely differing things to different people. In the case of the Oriental Museum, the definition is a wide one indeed, with the collections covering a huge area from North Africa to South East Asia. This is the legacy of the origins or the Oriental Museum in the teaching of oriental languages at Durham University.

There are Egyptian mummies, terracotta warriors and dragons on display in the pavilion. The exhibits are rich, and the collection of cultural relics is also very beautiful and precious. Well worth a visit.
