China’s Palace Museum is expected to triple the number of artefacts on display and hold more annual exhibitions once a massive expansion is completed in Beijing. The century-old museum located in the former imperial palace complex known as the Forbidden City has a collection of nearly 1.9 million cultural relics. But fewer than 10,000 are on public display each year because of a lack of space and adequate exhibit conditions. Construction on the expanded facility started in December 2022 and is expected to be complete by 2025.
