The "Magic City" from 5,000 years ago is actually hidden in Hangzhou? The Liangzhu Ancient City takes you through prehistoric civilization!

The "Magic City" from 5,000 years ago is actually hidden in Hangzhou? The Liangzhu Ancient City takes you through prehistoric civilization! Want to travel back 5,000 years and be a "Liangzhu noble"? The Liangzhu Ancient City Ruins Park in Yuhang, Hangzhou is definitely your "time tunnel"! Here, you’ll find not only China’s earliest "Forbidden City"—the Mojiaoshan Palace, covering an area comparable to four Forbidden Cities. Standing on the top platform, you can overlook the entire ancient city and feel the power of "dominating all smaller cities"; but also the world’s earliest water conservancy system, an 11-dam "flood control team" that is the prehistoric version of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System. Don’t think prehistoric times only had dirt pits—the No. 12 tomb in Fanshan King’s Mausoleum is the "luxury standard"—accompanied by jade cong and yue axes. The tomb owner must have been the "Liangzhu version CEO" wearing a jade crown and silk clothes! When you get tired of exploring, you can visit the Deer Park to feed the sika deer, watching the little deer with their adorable faces scramble for carrots, instantly healing the fatigue of workers. Here’s a secret: you can also experience AR time travel! Put on the glasses, and the jade patterns instantly turn into 3D animations. The pottery making and sacrificial scenes of the Liangzhu ancestors pop right before your eyes. Come here on the weekend, and you can be an archaeologist digging "blind boxes," picnic by the rice fields, making it a triple celebration for "history buffs + artsy youth + families"!
