Located on the east side of the Tian'anmen Square in Beijing, the museum was established in 2003 through the merger of the former National Museum of Chinese History and the National Museum of the Chinese Revolution. The National Museum of China, one of the biggest museums in the world, is home to over 1 million cultural relics, including bronze, jade and gold artifacts, pottery, porcelain, paintings and calligraphy -- counting them all could take several years.
