"The Light of Ancient Roman Civilization" Exhibition

Last weekend I paid a quick visit to the Beijing World Art Museum to check out “The Light of Ancient Roman Civilization” exhibition.

This was my first time going to this museum, I wasn’t even aware of it. This museum is in the west area of Beijing, whereas I usually stick to the east side. I should explore more of the west, there are definitely some interesting places I have yet to visit there.

The exhibition itself was much smaller than I expected, maybe I was thinking it would be similar to an ancient Rome exhibition I went to last year at the National Museum of China, which was much bigger.

But this one was still enjoyable, not as overwhelming.

This isn’t a review of the exhibition, just wanted to share some photos!


Since it was my first time, I grabbed a couple of shots of the outside of the building.
