History of National Art Museum of China (2)

The former Premier Zhou Enlai, was initially concerned about the safety of the building, thus the balustrade on the third floor was built.

In 1963, Chairman Mao Zedong wrote the Chinese characters for the National Arts Museum of China, and had them inscribed above the building’s front gate, which formally inaugurated it as a state museum.

Half a century and 4,000 exhibitions later, and the museum has amassed a collection of over 100 thousand pieces. And since 2011, the museum has been open to the public for free, continuing to receive millions of visitors each year and playing an indispensable role in China’s art promotion and education.
