The Chinese Museums Association said Friday that China’s museums received a total 1.1 billion visitors last year, with the number of young visitors showing stable growth.
The free admission policy of Chinese museums has brought a tremendous inflow of people, said Huang Chen, director of the association’s social education committee, at the annual meeting in Xi’an, northwest China’s Shaanxi Province.
Huang said a public education platform of museology has been launched to better serve museum-goers in China.
