Treasures from Yuanmingyuan (Old Summer Palace) are reunited in a new exhibition at Zhejiang Provincial Museum in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. Reimagining Yuanmingyuan brings together remarkable artifacts that reflect the grandeur of the Qing Dynasty (1644–1911) imperial garden while tracing their journeys of loss and return. A major highlight is the display of four original bronze zodiac heads: ox, tiger, monkey, and pig, presented together in one exhibition.
