Part of the Smithsonian, these two galleries, which are connected underground, specialize in Asian art: Japanese screens, ancient Chinese bronzes and jades, Biblical manuscripts, illuminated Islamic manuscripts, ancient Egyptian statues. (A lot of the artworks on the walls of the Mandarin Oriental are reproductions from these two museums.)
