National Museum Complex reopens to the public on Tuesday, July 5

The National Museum of the Philippines (NMP) on Tuesday reopened its doors to the public after its temporary closure for the June 30 inauguration of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

From June 6 to July 4, the National Museum of Fine Arts at the Old Legislative Building, Padre Burgos Drive in Manila was closed for Marcos’ oath-taking.

“The NMP Complex in Manila reopens today, July 5, 2022, after temporarily closing to the public for the inauguration of President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos, Jr.,” the museum said on Twitter.

“Visit us from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. No need for reservations, ADMISSION IS FREE!,” it added.

The area was temporarily closed to the public to allow for special preparations and arrangements to be presided over by the inauguration committee, the NMP said.

Aside from the National Museum of Fine Arts, the NMP Complex also houses the National Museum of Anthropology and the National Museum of Natural History. —Joviland Rita/KG, GMA News
