History Museums, Beijing

What do fossils, Manute Bol, dinosaur eggs, panda skeletons, human cadavers, and a coelacanthe all have in common?
They can all be seen at Beijing's Natural History Museum where you'll get answers to the following questions: Where do babies come from? Where do Japanese come from? Which is taller, a dinosaur or giraffe? How big is Chinese Bigfoot's foot? Where are the human cadavers? Where is the closest toilet?

Whether this is 'must see' depends on your interest in archaeology and artefacts. It also depends upon whether you have the patience to defeat the authorities determination to keep this museum hidden from view.
This museum contains some of the world's finest examples of Chinese objets d'art through the milennia. However, it does nothing to attract, inform or educate the visitor.
the museum is in about five different halls, unconnected, in different wings of the building lying to the east of Tianan'men Square in the vast white building with the flags. (Most people hate the building; I love it!)
The treasures are just breath-taking and should be managed better.
There are regular temporary exhibitions, but it is difficult to find out about these as the marketing people at the museum are as witless as the organisation people.
You will not be disappointed if you go inside for a few hours - especially if it is -7 degrees outside. Buy the guidebook and just wander through the halls.
Favourite? the bronze rhino with inlaid silver and gold clouds. I want one, and I want one now! Or maybe the jade burial suit, or the bronze age vegetable steamer, or the bronze hoes and ploughs. It must have been some kind of civilization that had the dedication to decorate agricultural hoes!!

I'm not providing the website details, because it is as hopeless as every other management aspect of the museum.
