During the carnival, Shanghai Museum launched a new book titled Pyramids in China: Behind the Scenes of the Ancient Egyptian Civilization Exhibition, revealing the challenges faced in organizing the largest showcase of ancient Egyptian artifacts ever held outside Egypt.
Compiled by Shanghai Museum and published by Yilin Press, the book highlights the great efforts the museum made "drawing ancient Egyptian civilization close to contemporary audiences in Shanghai," according to Chu Xiaobo, director of Shanghai Museum.
