The National Museum of Myanmar (Yangon), (Burmese: အမျိုးသား ပြတိုက်), located in Dagon, Yangon, is the major one of the two national museums for Burmese art, history and culture in Myanmar. Founded in 1952, the five-storey museum has an extensive collection of ancient artifacts, ornaments, work of art, inscriptions and historic memorabilia, related to history, culture and civilization of Burmese people.[1] The main attraction of the museum is the only surviving original Lion Throne of the Burmese monarchs. There are more than 4000 permanent objects in the museum.
Public museums in Myanmar are administered by the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Culture[2] and can be classified as national museums, archaeological museums, regional cultural museums, and memorial museums.[3] Furthermore, other kinds of museum are appearing under other ministries, like the Defense Services Museum[4] in the capital Naypyidaw, or in the private sector.
The museum is open from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, except on Mondays and public holidays.
