Before the Qingming holiday, I went to Qingyang City, a small town in Gansu, to visit the Qingyang Museum

Before the Qingming holiday, I went to Qingyang City, a small town in Gansu. This city is close to Shaanxi and also near the popular city of Tianshui. You can fly directly from Beijing to Qingyang. The city of Qingyang is not large; I only took a tour around the city center and visited the Qingyang Museum. I didn't have high expectations at first, because museums in such small towns tend to be perfunctory, but I was pleasantly surprised after going in. On the first floor, there was a fossil of an ancient elephant from the Yellow River, and then some ancient artifacts, some of which were quite stunning. There was also a Buddhist art exhibition on the first floor. The second floor was dedicated to a red-themed exhibition hall, and the third and fourth floors showcased traditional culture, including paper-cutting, sachets, shadow puppets, and comic strips. In summary, if you go to an unfamiliar city, starting with a visit to the city's museum can be a great choice, as it allows you to comprehensively understand the history and culture of the city.
