I did not have much expectation when a group of us were taken to the museum by the host. The building looks quite massive on the outside. There is a lot of empty spaces inside. This is a problem as we visited in January when the temperature was minus 5 degrees. There was no heating inside the museum and it would be impractical given the large amount of space inside the building. I felt sorry for the security guards and the workers in the building as it was bitterly cold throughout the building. However, the history and quality of the bronzewares more than compensated for the discomfort. Baoji was the cradle of the glorious bronze age civilization in the central plains of China more than 3,000 years ago. The large number of exhibits demonstrated the beauty of the various bronzewares, utensils and ornaments. Our tour guide did a very good job explaining the background and significance of the exhibits. The star attraction of the the museum is in fact a "national treasure" which will never leave the museum, it is an utensil where the two words Zhong Guo (China) were inscribed inside for the first time in history. I would have loved to linger a bit longer inside the museum but the bitter cold was a deterrent, as well as lack of English translation. Unless there is an English speaking tour guide at the site, otherwise there is very little or no information on individual exhibits in English.
