Head to Freedom Plaza and you'll go headlong into an exotic east asian world! Go for the day and explore the sops and make sure to eat at at least two places to fully experience it! My friend told me about this area and would have missed out otherwise!

quite a way west of the centre but you can get there on public transport pretty easily!

I totally never expected to visit the largest asian art museum in the west! Wow, what an amazing place, so much to see and you really feel like you are immersed in the cultures.

We went to all 3 sites, the Art Museum, the Olympic sculpture Park and the Asian Art Museum and loved them all. The Sculpture Park is huge so make sure you go on a nice day!
