King Leopold II wanted to create a walk through exotic architectural works in his time, not far from his royal palace. The Chinese Pavilion had to shelter a luxurious restaurant and was opened in 1913. Since 1946, the place became an annex of the Royal Museums of Art and History. China, Chinese furniture and tapestries dating from the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century are exhibited here.
