Famous scientist waxwork exhibit GZ

Near to the entrance to the Museum of Natural History is the Hall of famous scientists sculptures. It is a new addition to the mall and is apparently the world's first scientist themed waxwork exhibit. The waxworks were made by a famous artist named Zhou Xuerong and are stunningly lifelike. When looking at the sculptures you can barely believe that they arent real people, truly impressive artwork. The depicted scientists are those that have made great contributions to scientific knowledge throughout history. There are some more recent scientists such as Yuan Longping the famous father of modern hybrid rice. The sculptures then go back in history including Marie Curie, Watson and Crick, The Wright brothers, Einstein, Newton, Darwin, Mendeleev, Galileo, Copernicus, Archimedes and many others. If you have an interest in science both modern or historical you will certainly recognise some of the faces depicted here. There are information panels to describe the scientist's most important discoveries and inventions. #staycation #museum #science #art

Chen Clan Ancestral Hall

In Guangzhou? A visit to the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, 陈家祠, is a must. Dating originally to the late Qing Dynasty (though heavily restored in parts), the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall is one of the finest examples of Lingnan architecture and art. In addition to the building itself, richly ornamented with wood and stone carving and ceramic decorations, it is home to the Guangdong Folk Arts Museum, a small but excellently curated display of permanent and rotating exhibits including Chaozhou woodcarving, ceramics, ivory carving, embroidery, paper cutting and more. This is a place I always bring visitors to Guangzhou. Place: Chen Clan Ancestral Hall 陈家祠 Getting there: Metro Station Chen Clan Academy 地铁站陈家祠站 Admission: ¥10 (bring your ID) Recommended for: Tourists, locals, photography, history, architecture, art, culture. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #lightthecityGuangzhou #guangzhou #guangzhouPhotoSpot #guangdong #lingnan #architecture #art #museum #culture #culturetrip #daytrip #staycation #china
