The Capital Museum is second only to the National Museum in terms of size, and it is said that to see all the exhibitions should take up at least four or five hours. If you are into various kinds of cultural relics collected extensively over the past few decades, then this is the place for you. Bronzes, porcelain ware, calligraphy works, paintings, coins, jade objects, seals, needlework, Buddhist statues and a plethora of other pieces of cultural relics are on show from the museum's 200,000-plus collection."An Englishman in Beijing" by Brian Salter (ISBN: 9781784779658) is available for sale in China at ¥85 from Taobao: https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=675304960828&spm=a21dvs.23580594.0.0.3f062c1bQ6bPG5&skuId** A Blogger's Guide to Beijing by Brian Salter, is published by Amazon ASIN: B083V1JQN5#expat #expatlife #expatriates #expatinchina #beijing #china #chinatravel #BeijingExpat #ExpatsInBeijing #WorkAbroad #GlobalCitizen #BeijingLife #ChinaPodcast #EmbracingExpatExperience #ChinaExpat #laowai #capitalmuseum #bronzes
