1 In recent years, people have gone out to travel, and they have not only traveled around and shop, but eye-opening art journeys have gradually become a trend. Famous art institutions, such as the Palace Museum, the National Museum, the local Zhejiang Provincial Museum, and the Zhejiang Art Museum, have built public accounts on WeChat and regularly released art exhibitions and service information. Recently, the four major museums in the world, together with the British Museum in London, England, the Louvre in Paris, France, and the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, were also known as the Met in New York, which was built in 1870. It also opened a WeChat official account in China.
The reason is very simple. Ms. Naumi, who is in charge of public relations at the Metropolitan Museum, said that in recent years, more and more Chinese tourists have visited the Metropolitan Museum, and at the most, Chinese tourists can account for 20% to 30% of the total number of visitors that day. Visitors in Hangzhou also like to go there for a walk. Zhu Bingyan, assistant manager of the European and American department of Zhejiang Everbright Liyang International Travel Agency Co., Ltd., said: "In the early years, regular groups in Hangzhou rarely went to the Metropolitan Museum because it was too big, so it took at least two hours to visit. In the past two years, there were usually two hours of shopping time on Fifth Avenue when traveling with a group. Now many people will go to the Metropolitan Museum at this time."
However, when you really arrived at the museum, you would find that two hours was not enough to see it. The Metropolitan Museum covers an area of 130,000 square meters and has 3 million exhibits. Among them, there are 35,000 cultural relics in the Asian part and about 15,000 cultural relics in China. Ms. Naumi said that because the schedule is tight or the language barrier is difficult, many people take photos and watch them in a flash, and the viewing is not very careful.
The Ministry of Art of the Metropolitan Museum of China opens this WeChat account to help everyone solve all the problems of visiting - in addition to the opening hours, ticket prices, transportation routes, and visiting guides, where is Wi-Fi in the museum, how to connect, the location and opening hours of the restaurant and bar are introduced. What's more considerate is that everyone can also purchase tickets online through this WeChat account. Including the museum's latest exhibitions and fine collections, they will also introduce them one after another and recommend the museum's itinerary (half-day tours and excellent tours). Of course, if you don’t have time to go, you can also learn about those fine arts through the push of WeChat ID.
