Chimes, musical instrument originated from China some 4000 years ago,have spread throughout the world, following mysterious routes.

The history of chimes has often crossed the path of history itself: revolutions and wars have contributed to dispersal and destruction of bells, sometimes melted tomake guns. But chimes are more than just a musical instrument: they are part of the national heritage, be it cultural or property.
