This is the perfect place to tell you about a secret jewel in Southern California. It is located at the Sunrider Corporation headquarters in Torrance California. It is free and open from 10am to 4pm Mon through Friday. It is probably the most impressive collection I have seen of Chinese imperial period art. If you go to Sunrider.com you can get more info on the Chen's, their company (produces food combining Chinese and Western medicine), and their contirbutions to the Olympics, education and the arts.
