Museum displays are changed every two to three years, with important articles from the collections of museums throughout China on permanent display. The adjoining Confucian Shrine was built in 1893 through cooperation between the Chinese Qing government and people of Chinese heritage residing in Japan and is an extremely rare example of authentic Chinese mausoleum architecture in the country.

Looks pretty new and very Chinese as many Chinese live in Nagasaki.Statues of the sages and a good museum to back it up. Again, very slanted towards the glory of the Chinese peoples.
Lots of Construction

Entrance to this Confucius Shrine will set you back 660 yen per person. There is lots of construction around the perimeter of the shrine.
