  Soundtrack: 流水Liu Shui, a piece for Chinese ch'in zither, apparently dating back to the middle Ming dynasty (hence 1400s or so). urlLink This one's an interesting site, a home of the late Ch'ing (Qing for you pinyin Nazis) Dynasty, from Anhui province, moved in toto to America and restored beautifully. It's now at the urlLink Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusets, and is the only complete, historic Chinese house located outside China. The website is beautifully constructed and shows great attention to detail. The artefacts, the construction, daily use as well as the dismantling and later restoration and re-erection in America is explained extensivly and lavishly illustrated. Of course, everyone should have a deep knowledge and abiding interest in Chinese architecture, culture and history, so the site should be a source of great joy to all, but should one be such an unthinkable boor as to lack all of these things, the site will still remain an excellent example of how a museum website should work.
