Step into the British Museum <> and behold the splendor of rare cultural relics

❤️❤️❤️Recommended Reasons: ▪️ The British Museum is located in Russell Square, London, UK. The museum was established in 1753 and officially opened to the public in 1759. It is the largest and oldest comprehensive museum in the world. ▪️ The British Museum is one of the world's four most famous museums. The museum's collection includes a vast array of historical artifacts and art treasures from around the world. With its richness and variety of collections, it is considered the best in the world. ▪️ The museum houses over eight million treasures, but due to insufficient exhibition space and other reasons, to this day, 99% of the collections are still scattered and stored in numerous warehouses, not open to the public. The collections mainly consist of precious artifacts brought to London during the 18th and 19th centuries when Britain expanded overseas and engaged in cultural plundering of other nations. ▪️ The Egyptian Museum is the largest gallery within, representing the high civilization of ancient Egypt. There are also numerous artifacts from ancient Greece, Rome, and China on display, representing the splendid culture and history of ancient Greece, Rome, and ancient China. Additionally, there are galleries for the Americas, Africa, and more, with the British Museum covering nearly the entire history of human civilization. ▪️ Due to time constraints, we only visited the ancient Egyptian, Roman, and Chinese museums. The Rosetta Stone of ancient Egypt is the treasure of the British Museum, attracting a large number of viewers. The ancient Egyptian mummies are also a popular attraction, along with stone carvings, marble sculptures, masks, vessels, jewelry, and more. ▪️ Entering the Chinese Museum gallery, one is dazzled by the array of Chinese murals, ceramics, gold artifacts, jades, and other cultural relics. The British Museum has a collection of 23,000 Chinese artifacts, of which only over 2,000 are currently on display... May the world be peaceful and serene, and may the displaced Chinese cultural relics one day return to the embrace of their motherland!
