The National Museum of China

 

Located along the eastern side of Tiananmen Square, it is the merger of two museums formerly separate buildings on the same site: the Museum of the Chinese Revolution in the northern wing, and the National Museum of Chinese History in the southern wing. In front is a countdown clock to the Beijing Olympics. It was unfortunately closed for renovations while I was there, as was the mausoleum of Chairman Mao Zedong.
