Tips

usage
纪念物 vs 纪念品: 纪念物 is the personal-keepsake side — a thing you keep because of a person or event (a deceased relative's watch, a flag from a battle). 纪念品 jìniànpǐn leans commercial — gift-shop souvenirs, mass-produced commemorative items. If a museum sells it, it's 纪念品; if your grandmother left it to you, it's 纪念物.
