Beijing 2024 - National Museum of China (中国国家博物馆) Exit

Around 5pm, we finally exit the museum to this view! Wow! Sun setting at the People's Hall opposite.  By the look of it, nobody seems too eager to go home yet! Everyone was just lingering around taking selfies. Knowing how hard it was to get tickets to even come to this place and get closed to it, I can understand that feeling. You wouldn't have felt the same if you were on a tour visiting this place where everything was arranged for you. We weren't in a hurry to leave either. The rule was to exit the museum by 5pm. They never mention we can't hang around outside! The guards weren't chasing people away either, so everyone just linger :)

A picture looking back at the museum. We were basically just standing at the steps of the museum looking out, looking back, looking up! 

The roof of the museum, dressed all in red for China.

Wefie with all the people behind us. Love the view. You're gonna hate me, but the backdrop reminds me of Venice! Hahahahaha.

Another wefie with the museum and it's roof deco behind us! Good job Cordy for being able to come here! If you put your mind to it, you can beat anything! Including beating the 'i am not a robot' challenge in freaking Chinese when trying to get tickets here! (of course with help from the husband, cause the first time I encounter it I panicked!).

One last photo for the road!

We weren't chase out, but eventually we started making out way home. Pass TianNanMen on our way back and took a photo. Forgot if I managed to get tickets to this place by then, but you can bet I was gonna try and try!

Gah! So much security everywhere!
