With the exception of the aforementioned maps the exhibition has little to offer anyone with prior knowledge of Zheng He's voyages and the exhibit makes the story of the Yunnan-born admiral appear like a passing footnote in history.
There are a couple of English language explanations of Zheng He's journeys, but they are pretty basic and as is all too often the norm with exhibitions at the National Museum of History, if you haven't got time for a tour and can't read Chinese then there's little point in going.
