The maps clearly indicate the changes of a museum in a decade from 1998 to 2008.
In 1998, the museum was quite plain as can be seen from the picture. The ticket office was just in front of the entrance door. Then going forward, you would see a garden set in the centre of the museum with a cafe bar right behind it. These four areas were located in a line in the middle of the museum, dividing the floor plan into three parts, where the exhibition room was placed on the left while the washroom and cloakroom on the right.
The year 2008 did not see much alterations of the entrance or the ticket office. However, the garden was modified by a fountain and seating for cafe as well, since the coffee bar was moved from the back of the museum to the left of the garden. Besides, the cloakroom was cancelled and the washroom took the original place of the cafe, leaving plenty of room for the right area in the museum where exhibitions were being held.
