10 splendid museums in China

The Dinosaur Egg Museum, nestled in the Qinglong Mountain, Central China's Hubei province, was named one of the top 10 public building of 2016 by renowned architecture and design magazine Dezeen. It was the only Chinese building included in the international list. The museum was designed by an expert team led by Chinese architect Li Baofeng from Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The museum sprawls down a mountainside, covering a geological site containing fossils of dinosaur eggs laid 80 million years ago. [Photo/VCG]
