In terms of personal experience, the National Museum of Manila should have three main components, namely, the separation of the Three Museums of History and Art from the Natural Museum. The National Museum on both sides of the Rizal Statue mainly exhibits works of art with oil paintings as the main framework of various historical nodes in the Philippines. The overall level is not high and the number is limited. Especially, many spaces are not open or a few oil paintings account for tens of square meters. In addition to the funds, the large exhibition hall really has to say that Philippine culture is too thin. Like us, the National Museum of the Philippines bears more of the history of the nation's blood and tears. It has repeatedly repeated centuries of colonial pain to its own people. There are traces of Spanish power and brutal acts of Japanese colonialism everywhere. Museum of Nature I can omit too much. When I went, more than half of the space was open and most of the precious fossil specimens were packed in a glass cabinet that I didn't know who moved it from. The tropical oceanic country consisting of more than 7,000 islands. In my opinion, the treasure of the town hall might be the skeleton of a giant crocodile. There were too many curiosities not shown to us. Technology and funding limited the Philippines. The right of pride. Finally, I would like to say that the Philippines is not a country that can compete with us for territory, whether national strength or national character. They are more like a simple and cunning lazy man. Under the chaotic public order, I see a wisp of knowledge-hungry purity in the museum.

    As a national museum, of course, the most worthwhile museum to visit, and is free to visit. The entrance is the oil painting area on the first floor, and the Catholic influence is deeply embedded in the country. Basically there are paintings about Jesus, his birth, suffering, reincarnation, etc. Some exhibition halls are still a story line, and in order to appreciate is a classic work in the Bible. On the first floor, there are also some modern Filipino oil paintings. You can see the Philippine giants and the dresses of politicians, food, clothing, housing and transportation. The second floor is more modern art, except for oil paintings, mainly artworks, crafts, original weapons, etc. There are also pearl shell works, wood carvings and so on. The basement is a collection of mineral specimens. Of course, as our immediate neighbor, the Chinese elements in the museum are also indispensable.

Highly recommended!

    National Museum of the Philippines, Manila. Built in 1901, formerly the Island Ethnic, Natural History and Commercial Museum, the collection is mainly natural specimens, artworks, archaeological finds and handicrafts of the country.
