Your favorite Chinese celebrity- now in wax

Wax Jackie ChanWhat better way to celebrate the Chinese New Year than to personficate 8 top Chinese celebrities in wax. Where can you find this amazing exhibition of Chinese nationalism made to celebrate the Chinese New Year and Chinese celebrities? Certainly not in China! That’s right, you need to head over to London, England to see these lifelike figures. Actually, there are some on display in Hong Kong too.

Not to fret though, the wax figure company, Madame Tussauds, will be opening in Shanghai this spring. This is sort of a sneak preview in a way, of what we can expect to see when they open up here. You can expect to see Chinese stars famous in the west such as Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee and towering Yao Ming.

I am really not sure how a wax museum would mesh with Chinese culture, but I guess we’ll just wait and see
