The first part of the museum mainly displays the historical picture of ancient Egypt with the statue of Pharaoh. Around 5000 BC, Egyptians lived in the Nile valley and lived a farming life. Around 3600 BC, many cities were formed. At this time, Egypt entered the pre-dynasty era. Some representative relics of this era are pottery, color palette and some murals. The museum shows the "murals unearthed in Yelakon City" depicting animals and ships, and the "color palette of victory" representing this battle. The period from 3/kloc to 0/00 BC, when the Nile valley was unified to the sixth dynasty, was called the "ancient kingdom period" in Egypt, also known as the "pyramid period". At this time, the statues of Pharaoh are represented by the "Sitting Statue of King Zhuose" found near the Sacrifice Hall of Shakara Pyramid and the "Statues of Pepi I and Prince Melilla" unearthed in the empty city of Yala. One of them, A Portrait of a Secretary in Cairo, is quite high-level, and the statue is realistic, reflecting the superb carving skills at that time. A statue reflecting Egypt's "Middle Kingdom Age" and a sitting statue of "Montuhito II" are displayed in the museum. He wore a red crown on his head and a white robe. He looks very determined and has a sense of superiority to rule the world. In addition, there are "marching soldiers" group images, reflecting the turmoil at that time.

During the new dynasty, the museum showed the heroic spirit of Tuthmus III. The most unforgettable are "Jin Mianju" and "Golden Coffin". /kloc-The human coffin in Tutankhamun in the 0/8th century was made of a gold plate with a thickness of about 3cm, decorated with rubies, lapis lazuli and stained glass, which was quite gorgeous, showing the dignity and luxury of the king of that year.

The second part of the museum mainly displays a large number of ancient Egyptian sarcophagus, mummies, funerary objects and so on, explaining the afterlife philosophy of ancient Egyptians. They believe that people can be resurrected as long as they don't rot after death. As a result, they extensively made solid graves and mummies, waiting for the ghosts to enter again. In the museum, there are many sarcophagus on display, such as the sarcophagus of Astmukabu, the sarcophagus of Ancient Tiananke, the sarcophagus of Dwarf Jaeger-Jaeger and so on. In the eyes of the Egyptians, the sarcophagus is very important, and it is directly used to protect the body. Therefore, the sarcophagus is particularly exquisite, with rectangular, curved and humanoid shapes. Some sarcophagus are beautifully shaped and decorated with all kinds of exquisite stone carvings. There are oil paintings inside the sarcophagus, depicting the activities of the deceased in the underworld. In addition, there are some pottery dolls as funerary objects. The "figures buried with headscarves and wigs" hidden in the museum are vivid and lifelike, showing the profound knowledge and profound observation of life of ancient sculptors.

The third part mainly shows Egyptian artworks. In ancient Gu Zhuo, statues had unique flavor and certain norms, which made people feel dull and depressed. The stone statues such as "Mr. and Mrs. Tai Caliso" and "Princess Isis" displayed in the museum reflect this style. During the period of Aknathon, the 18th King of Egypt, some changes took place in artistic style, and a naturalistic and realistic artistic style was developed, which was called "Amana Style". The statue of King Aknatong exhibited in the showroom is contrary to the majesty and exaggeration of other statues, and shows the normality of ordinary people. In addition, the woodcarving reflecting civilian life is more vivid and vivid, with a strong flavor of life.

The other two forms of ancient Egyptian art are relief and sketch. Paper sketches are mainly based on life and death books. The reliefs show scenes of various social activities, such as "dancing crowds", "Montevideo II punishes enemies", "Princess combs her hair" and "Men fight". The fourth part of the museum mainly describes the living conditions of ordinary people in ancient Egypt. It shows a series of unearthed objects, which vividly reflects the hard work of ordinary people and the creation of wealth for society at that time. For example, in a group of textile models, some people are picking up hemp, some are rolling hemp, and some are weaving hemp, just like a small handicraft workshop. There are also objects that reflect all aspects of social life, such as geese, ducks and fruits. Due to the special meteorological conditions in ancient Egypt, these vivid samples have been preserved to this day, which let us know about the food at that time. Things that are extremely difficult to preserve in many other areas have also been unearthed in Egyptian tombs, such as tools, such as level meters, gauges, vertical gauges, ladders, pens, feather pens, wooden palette, ink cartridges and ink ropes, and other musical instruments, such as harp, lyre and banjo, which reflect people's colorful life and certain scientific and technological level at that time.
