Museum exhibits are the crystallization of human wisdom and also carriers of culture, playing a significant role in cross-cultural exchanges. As cultural exchanges between China and the world deepen, how to effectively translate museum exhibits and promote Chinese culture has become an important research topic in recent years. This paper selects some English translation examples from the official website of the Shenzhen Museum for study. Through the lens of the Cultural Translation Theory, it explores the fundamental principles and effective translation strategies and recommendations for translating exhibits into English.
