Heroes of Asia at the Asian Civilisation Museum, Singapore 5 June – 28 November 2010

Heroes of Asia is the ACM’s second exhibition curated especially for children! Featuring colourful displays and engaging artefacts from the ACM’s collection, the exhibition explores the legends behind some of the well-known and well-loved characters of Asian myths – many of whom are still well-known and often found in contemporary culture.

Some of the characters you will learn about in the exhibition include Hanuman the Monkey God of India, Rustam the dashing champion of Iran who defeated dragons and demons, and Mulan the warrior-maiden of Chinese legends.
