Wonders of Imperial Carpets: Masterpieces from the Museum of Islamic Art, Doha

As the first comprehensive exhibition in Hong Kong to showcase the artistic and cultural exchange between Islamic and Chinese peoples, the Hong Kong Palace Museum (HKPM) has chosen to focus the show on the achievements of Safavid Iran, Mughal India, and Ottoman Türkiye. In collaboration with the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, Qatar, there will be approximately 100 pieces on display, including carpets, ceramics, metalwork, manuscripts, and jades, accompanied by artefacts from the Palace Museum and HKPM. Keep an eye out for the Kevorkian Hyderabad carpet, one of the longest Islamic carpets in a museum collection at almost 16 metres. ‘Wonders of Imperial Carpets’ will run from June 18 to October 6, and tickets cost $150.
