Karaoke for everyone? Nanjing Museum

The three biggest museums in China are the Palace Museum in Beijing and the Palace Museum in Taiwan, and the third is either the Nanjing Museum or the Shanghai Museum. This time I visited the Nanjing Museum. The exhibits are in chronological order, from the dinosaur era to stone tools, bronze tools, the Han, Sui and Tang, Song and Ming dynasties, and show the history of Jiangsu in detail, making it easy to understand. I was surprised by the number of earthenware and other exhibits. The cow doll "silver-copper inlaid red lantern" was excavated from the Han dynasty, and the intensity of the light can be adjusted by opening and closing the window. Apparently, smoke is absorbed by the water in the cow's stomach through the horns, so no smoke is produced. I was impressed by the high level of technology from 2000 years ago. Both Xiang Yu and Liu Bang from the Qin and Han dynasties were from Jiangsu. I was reminded of the depth of Suzhou's history. Immortality and longevity are something that all people of all ethnicities wish for, and only a very limited number of people, such as royalty, can make the preparations for it. It seems that China also considered preserving corpses in the same way. The dolls from the Tang dynasty are colorful and magnificent. Are we all singing karaoke? Then I thought, there is a statue pulling a camel. Normally, Chinese people need to make a reservation in advance, but foreigners can get an admission ticket by showing their passport at the service counter without making a reservation. And it's free!! I'm grateful. I was also very satisfied with the exhibits. #Nanjing #NanjingMuseum
