🏛️【Nanjing Museum】A guide to exploring the museum until your legs drop! A stamina test for cultural relics lovers

It was obviously the first stop, but I was shocked to have walked 20,000 steps a day! This free museum is a true fitness training ground for culture buffs.

🌟 Must-See Highlights
✅ Museum Treasures:
- "Western Han Dynasty Golden Beast" from the Chu Kingdom: Crafted from 9,100 grams of pure gold
- "Silver-Threaded Jade Clothes" from the Qing Dynasty: Woven with over 2,600 pieces of Hetian jade and silver thread, it symbolizes the Han Dynasty's burial philosophy of "jade burial for immortality"
✅ International Special Exhibitions:
- Exhibits from different countries are featured periodically
✅ Hidden Shopping Street:
- Freshly made Yuhua Tea Cakes at the Republican-style "Old Teahouse"
- Must-try plum blossom cakes at the Six Dynasties Restaurant
- Freshly brewed Nanjing milk

🗺️ Effortless Route Guide
1️⃣ Head to the special exhibition area first
2️⃣ Highlights of the main building: Jade Hall → Clock Hall → Sculpture Hall
3️⃣ Finally, refuel at the shopping street

💡 Survival Tips
⌚ Recommended duration: 3 hours or more, with some flexibility (it's exhausting!)
🚇 Metro Line 2, Ming Palace Station, Exit 1
👟 Essentials: Comfortable sneakers + a power bank
⏰ Warning: Closed on Mondays! Reservations are required.

From European antique clocks to Warring States jades, and finally sipping ice-cold milk in the antique street—this isn't just an exhibition, it's a cultural marathon!
