The National Museum in Prague is hosting 100 Treasures, 100 Stories. On loan from the National Palace Museum in Taipei, it brings masterpieces of Chinese art to Europe for the very first time. At its heart is the famous jadeite cabbage, often compared to the Mona Lisa for its popularity and cultural significance.

Most of the objects on display come from the Qing dynasty, which ruled China from the mid-17th to the early 20th century.
