What to expect at National Museum of China
The National Museum of China, a four-storeyed main building with two symmetrical wings, runs more than 300 meters north and south along the eastern side of Tian’anmen Square. The predecessors of the National Museum are two museums: the Museum of Chinese History and the Museum of Chinese Revolution, which shared the same building complex. The building was one of ten famous architectures built in 1959 to mark the 10th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic. The Museum of Chinese History was in the South Wing while the North Wing housed the Museum of the Chinese Revolution. They were both opened to the public in 1961.

The Museum of Chinese History displays three main periods of Chinese history. The first, the Primitive Society, spans from 500,000BC to 4,000BC. The exhibits in the Slavery Society section cover the time from 2,100BC to 475BC and the Feudal Society exhibits focus on the period from 221BC to 1911.

Örnekler arasında Yuanmo Adamı ve Pekin Adamı'nın ünlü fosil kalıntıları, Neolitik Çağ'ın dikkat çekici boyalı çanak çömlekleri ve yeşim eşyaları, Simuwu Dikdörtgen Ding (bir tür kap) Shang Hanedanlığı'na ait (dökülmüş 3, 000 yıllar önce ve ağırlığında 832. 84kg — dünyanın en ağır antik bronz eşyası), Shang Hanedanlığı kare bronz Zun (şarap kabı) dört koyun başı ve büyük yazılı Batı Zhou Hanedanlığı ile süslenmiş (11MÖ. yüzyıl – 771MÖ) bronz Tava (su kabı).
