About
クイックファクト: A neoclassical colonnade delivers a dramatic first impression, and inside you'll find more than 140,000 artifacts spanning stone tools, royal regalia, and colonial-era curiosities. Visitors often linger over gleaming gold and embossed bronze pieces, many with visible tool marks that make craftsmanship centuries old feel astonishingly immediate.
ハイライト: Curators still whisper about a dusty crate labeled 'Wonoboyo' from a 1990 excavation, which revealed tiny gold cups and intricate jewelry no bigger than a fingertip. In one dimly lit gallery a row of more than 40 carved kris hilts sits under soft amber light, the ivory and wood catching the glow so visitors can spot hammered patterns and faded pigments with just a step closer.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes for extensive walking across marble floors and steps.
- Arrive at opening to beat school groups and get clear photos of the large stone statues in the ground-floor halls.
- Head to the archaeological and prehistoric galleries first, then move upstairs to ethnography and coin collections when you want to sit and read.
- Ask at the information desk about photography rules and free museum maps, and carry small change for the café and restroom donations.
