From Emperor to Citizen -- The Life of Aixinjueluo Puyi

In modern world history, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Puyi, was one of the most symbolic and dramatic historical figures, reflecting the rise and fall and tremendous changes of China's modern history.

The Puppet Manchurian Imperial Palace Mu seum was rebuilt on from the former Puppet Manchurian Imperial Palace in 1982 and opened to the public in 1984. Puyi, as the puppet emperor of the Japanese-supported Manchurian Regime, ruled here from 1932 to 1945.

"From Emperor to Citizen -- The Life of Aixinjueluo Puyi" was first exhibited in 1985 by the museum and renovated in 2003. The new exhibition halls cover an area of 680 square meters, displaying 421 historical photos, 145 cultural relics, and 117 other various exhibits, equipped with original record players, multimedia data search computers, and video playing systems.

The exhibition won the Prize of Elaborate Works in the Sixth National Top Ten Museums (2003-2004) competition.
