At the core of the NMC’s allure lies its extraordinary collection of over 1.4 million cultural relics, each with a unique story to tell. These treasures traverse the full spectrum of Chinese history: from prehistoric jade carvings of the Hongshan and Liangzhu cultures—such as the 5,000-year-old Jade Dragon, a symbol of early Chinese cosmology—to the magnificent bronze ritual vessels of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, exemplified by the Simuwu Cauldron. This towering 832-kilogram bronze masterpiece, crafted over 3,000 years ago, not only showcases the unparalleled metallurgical skill of ancient China but also embodies the hierarchical social structure of the era.

1National Museum Of China
National Museum of China not only the nation’s preeminent cultural landmark but also one of the world’s largest and most comprehensive museums. More than a mere repository of artifacts, it is a living testament to the continuity, diversity, and grandeur of Chinese civilization, spanning over 5,000 years of history and bridging the gap between ancient traditions and modern progress. The museum’s modern iteration emerged from a pivotal merger in 2003, uniting the National Museum of Chinese History and the National Museum of Chinese Revolution. After an extensive renovation, its current 200,000-square-meter complex opened to the public in 2011, blending classical Chinese architectural aesthetics with contemporary design. Grand colonnades, sweeping rooflines inspired by ancient palaces, and a spacious central hall adorned with intricate carvings evoke a sense of solemnity and grandeur, befitting a institution that safeguards the nation’s collective memory.
