Museum of Asian Art, Asian art museum in Spianada Square, Greece.

The Museum of Asian Art occupies the Palace of Saint Michael and Saint George, a neoclassical building near the Liston promenade in Corfu.

The museum started in 1928 as the Museum of Sino-Japanese Art when Gregorios Manos donated his collection of 9,500 artifacts to the Greek state.

The collection includes 15,000 works from China, Japan, India, Pakistan, Korea, Tibet, Nepal, and Cambodia, featuring sculptures, ceramics, and traditional weapons.

The museum opens daily from 8:00 to 20:00, offering guided tours and a virtual exhibition experience for remote exploration of the collections.

The throne room, ballroom, and dining room on the second floor display medals of the Chivalric order painted directly on the palace walls.
