Museum of Women and Children of China

The building of the Museum of Women and Children of China, opened in Beijing in 2010, impresses with its modern and non-standard design with red lights in front of the main entrance. The museum was originally conceived as a tourist attraction, and located next to prestigious hotels.

Now the building houses a museum with a huge number of exhibits (more than 30 thousand), telling about the history of the situation of women and children at different times in different regions of the country. It presents life with all the entertainments, outfits, crafts and life of ordinary peasant women and wives of wealthy officials. The museum has five thematic exhibitions and six pavilions.

It is the first museum in China dedicated to women and children.
