Zhejiang Jiaxing Zongzi Culture Museum 3/3

Jiaxing is known as the "hometown of zongzi" in China, with a long history of zongzi culture. For thousands of years, the people of Jiaxing have been growing rice and eating rice, paying attention to fine farming and fine food. As a typical representative of "Jiahu fine snacks", Jiaxing zongzi is exquisite both inside and outside. Making and eating zongzi is a childhood memory for every Jiaxing person. The small zongzi is also a bond that connects family and friendship. In addition to the original display methods of utensils, photos, calligraphy and paintings, and sculptures, the exhibition area also specially invited a wax sculpture artist from Hangzhou to create a series of lifelike wax figures, which vividly restore the bustling scenes of the ancient street Zhangjia Lane Heji, Qingji, Rongji, and Wufangzhai zongzi shops. The historical context of the origin and inheritance of Jiaxing zongzi, the bustling scenes of the ancient street Zhangjia Lane Heji, Qingji, Rongji, and Wufangzhai zongzi shops, outline the changes of zongzi brands such as Wufangzhai, Zhenzhen Laolao, and Changji.
