The Museo di Arte Orientale E. Chiossone was built specifically as a museum by the architect Mario Laḅ in 1971. Standing in a panoramic position inside the Parco di Villetta di Negro, it is the most important Italian collection of its kind housing around 15,000 items. The Edoardo Chiossone collection attracts more Japanese visitors than Genoese, because the collection was amassed during the fall of the feudal regime which lasted 700 years. The collection is of huge historically and artistically importance charting, as it does, this era of change.
