Founded in 1960 and originally located in the national historic landmark, Zhong Wang Fu
palace complex, Suzhou Museum has been a highly-regarded regional museum with a
number of significant Chinese cultural relics. A new museum designed by world famous
architect I.M.Pei was completed in October 2006, covering over 10,700 square meter and
located at the cross of Dongbei Street and Qimen Road. The design of this new museum
visually complements the traditional architecture of Zhong Wang Fu. The new museum
houses over 30000 cultural relics --- most notably for excavated artifacts, Ming and Qing
Dynasty paintings and calligraphy, and ancient arts and crafts.
