Five floors of Chinatown building hold 8,000 artefacts spanning 200 years of Chinese-Australian life. The processional dragon — claimed as the world's largest — anchors the permanent collection; temporary exhibitions range from John Young's archival reckoning with a forgotten 19th-century miner to Chinese Anzac parallels across two world wars. Four hundred thousand school students have come through. The weight of that accumulation shows.
