The map below shows the plan of a museum in 1998 and after some changes were made in it in 2008. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The blueprints above display the layout of a
museum
in 1998 and 2008, respectively. They show that in comparison with the original design in 1998, the whole
museum
was divided more clearly
according to
functions in 2008. The biggest function areas are
exhibition
rooms. They had been scattered in different corners of the
museum
,
while
after renovation, they were now concentrated in two areas. One was a temporary
exhibition
room, located on the left side of the
museum
; the other was a permanent one, occupying the whole right side of the
museum
. Between the two
exhibition
areas was a centre garden, where, in 2008, there were some fountains and a comfy sitting area.
Besides
the core area including the
exhibition
rooms and the garden, there were other rooms as well. To the east of the entrance was a shop, and a cloakroom where there had been a temporary
exhibition
room. What was situated at the northwest corner of the
museum
was a restaurant which had not been in 1998.
