I want to talk about a museum called Long Museum. It’s located at the West Bank of Huangpu River. It’s made by of concrete. So it looked looks very strong sturdy and powerful. There are many exhibitions be held happening in this museum. Like this year month,  the world art exhibitions will show this month happen and lots of artworks will display on be displayed in the museum. It’s The museum is very big, and you can spend maybe one hour in the museum and see around to walk around (and it takes one hour to just walk around). After you finish trip I visiting the museum, you can walk around the riverside. And there’rethere is not an outside grass and The scene is very beautiful around the museum, it’s a very charming place to visit. I go to the museum maybe once a year, when there are There are some exhibitions that I’m interested in. And I recommended you can to visit it. It’s hard to define what type of museum it is but I think it’s focused on contemporary art. Lots of printings or pictures and some thing big craft large art piece will be displayed on in the museum so you can enjoy different kinds of art.

At first, I think museums is are a good recorders places for learning history. It can be a place where show the public a lot of things related to history, like printings and ancients goods. It can be an educational place for young generations. When they visit the museum they can study the history from another angle, not just from books or magazines. And it’s also a place to show the national culture for foreigners.

I think the heritage means a lot of things such as customs traditions, languages, history. These kinds of things made make up this country. So it’s something shared by the people in the country.
