This is part of the Shanghai Museum. As an ignorant foreigner in China, I initially thought everyone was Chinese. I mean they are all Chinese but they are not all of the same ethnicity. Wiki says that 91.5% of the population are the Han but there are also other ethnic groups in China such as the Zhuang (16.9 million), Hui (10.5 million), Manchu (10.3 million) etc. In everyday living, people rarely talk about their ethnicity and its also difficult for me to know who-is-who, not with my limited conversational proficiency.
