Beijing contains abundant museum resources. In 2022, there are 204 registered museums, which means if we visit one museum every weekend, it will take nearly four years to visit them all. Beijing's museums are all-encompassing. For example, the world-renowned Palace Museum has a collection of more than 1,860,000 sets of exhibitions. There are also many specialized museums, such as Chinese Archaeological Museum, where we can learn about 3,000-year-old cities and 800-year-old ancient capitals. Telling the history of the city, Beijing's museums can provide us with a bridge to communicate with the ancient people and connections with the future. Through museums, we can understand and feel the charm of Beijing from different dimensions.
