Nowadays, the basic display of the museum is not only a place to display cultural relics and collections, but also a place for education and learning, with rich historical relics and story resources.

The other is sorting out the basic display of the central and representative regional museums. This paper chooses six first-level museums and junior high school history textbooks in China to carry out the organic unity of “real” and “virtual”. In the data sorted out, it analyzes the typical utensils appearing in the textbooks, how the utensils appearing in the form of pictures in the textbooks match the cultural relics displayed in the basic display of the museum, the role of cultural relics observation in history education, and the function and value of museum education. Research and other issues, and put forward some suggestions on the deficiencies in its role.
