Wuxi Museum, located in the heart of Taihu Square, is a treasure trove of Wuxi's rich cultural heritage spanning 6000 years. The museum showcases artifacts from prehistoric times to the modern era, offering visitors a glimpse into the city's unique identity shaped by its linguistic separation from northern China.
Wuxi Museum is known for it’s rich historical value and their sculpture. They shows the real history of Chinese history. Their interior is Marvelous which can easily attract visitors. Their sculpture is really realistic to enjoy. You can gather a lot knowledge about their history and culture. I must suggest everyone to visit at Least once at wuxi museum.

(Translated by Google) It refreshed my understanding of museums. The appearance is more modern, and there are no historical relics inside. It is more like a combination of a science and technology museum and an art museum. In terms of technology, there are some models and schematic diagrams of technological research and development. The underground floor is full of replicas of various classic foreign sculptures and paintings. Almost all well-known works are not immune. There are very few people. It feels like a private venue.(Original)刷新了我对博物馆的认知。外形比较有现代感,里面没有什么历史文物,更像是科技馆和美术馆的综合体。科技方面有一些科技研发的模型和原理图。地下一层都是山寨国外各种经典的雕塑和画作。几乎所有知名的作品都无法幸免。人很少。有种包场的感觉。

(Translated by Google) When entering here, your carry-on luggage must go through the X-ray machine, and the security check is very strict. Registration for the Taiwan Compatriot Certificate is free and you can view cultural relics. And there is also a 4D movie that travels through time and space to watch!(Original)進到這裡隨身行李需經過X光機,安檢很嚴格。台胞證登記完全免費就可觀賞文物。而且還有4D電影穿越時空可以看喔!

(Translated by Google) I think the highlights are the purple sand Yixing tea utensils and mud dolls. In particular, many of the dolls are cute and I think you'll enjoy them.You must obtain a reception slip from the ticket machine before entering the museum. It's free, so feel free to enjoy it.(Original)紫砂の宜興茶器や泥人形が見所かなと思います。特に人形は可愛らしいのが多く、楽しめると思います。発券機で受付票を貰ってから入館する必要があります。無料ですのでお気軽に楽しめます。
