Poly Art Museum
Hidden away on the ninth floor of an office building in Dongzhimen, Beijing, the State-owned museum specifically exhibits pieces recovered from overseas, the centerpiece being four of the 12 animal heads-the pig, monkey, tiger, and ox-robbed by French and British armies from the Old Summer Palace in 1860.
Fun fact: The most recently recovered animal heads, the rat and the rabbit, are currently housed at the National Museum of China while the horse’s head is displayed at the Capital Museum.
