BEIJING, May 18 (Xinhua) — China saw 382 new museums registered in 2022, bringing the total number of museums across the country to 6,565, data from the National Cultural Heritage Administration (NCHA) showed on Thursday, which is the International Museum Day.
During the year, Chinese museums saw 578 million visits, with approximately 34,000 offline exhibitions and nearly 230,000 educational activities held.
