Guide to Visiting and Getting Stamps at Shaoxing Museum

When people come to Shaoxing, they all go to visit Lu Xun’s hometown, leaving the museum for me to visit! Feel the charm of ancient Yue culture and start a cultural journey through time and space [Loupe] ………… 🌟Shaoxing Museum is not simple. The shape of the main exhibition hall is taken from the unearthed cultural relic Jiyue Bronze House in Shaoxing (now in the Zhejiang Provincial Museum). It has a bronze four-slope roof and the exterior walls are decorated with Shaoxing East Lake bluestone. In the middle of the square stands an abstract sculpture of a bronze sword that is 12.8 meters high and weighs 8 tons. Below the sculpture is a 40-meter-long bronze "firewood road" engraved with 25 historical records of Shaoxing from "In the 30th year of King Jing of Zhou, Gou Jian ordered Fan Li to build a city" to "On July 27, 1983, the State Council approved the establishment of Shaoxing as a city". The whole group of sculptures implies courage, sleeping on firewood, and striving for strength. 🌟This may be the most down-to-earth museum I have ever visited. The venue faces north and south, and the main entrance is full of locals who come to bask in the sun, chatting and watching people dancing in the square, having a great time. There are few people in the venue, making the visit as comfortable as possible! ………… 🏠Address No. 75, Pianmenzhi Street, Renmin West Road, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City 🚌Transportation Shaoxing Ancient City Tourist Bus Loop Line, Route 6, Route 18, Route 23, Route 28, Route 52, Route 177, Route 302, Special Route 1001 🎫Tickets Free, no reservation required 🕰Opening hours Closed on Monday Tuesday to Thursday 9:00-16:30 Friday-Sunday, summer and winter vacations, statutory holidays 9:00-20:00 ⌚️Visit duration 2 hours 🔥Stamp There are 3 free stamps at the entrance service desk and 6 free stamps at the entrance of the Helan Mountain Rock Paintings temporary exhibition hall. Stamping machine stamp card 38/set. ………… 🌟The museum is not big, with two floors above and below the ground. There is only one basic exhibition: Spring and Autumn Period in Yue Land - Shaoxing History and Culture Exhibition, which is divided into six parts: "Xian Yue, Yue State, Kuaiji County, Yuezhou, Shaoxing Prefecture, and Modern Shaoxing", systematically displaying the history and culture of Shaoxing from the Paleolithic Age to the founding of New China. 🌟There are two temporary exhibitions in the special exhibition hall on the first floor: 1️⃣Dialogue between man and stone – Helan Mountain rock painting special exhibition, opening up the fierce competition between northern and southern cultures💥 2️⃣ Archaeological Shaoxing – Exhibition of archaeological excavation results in Shaoxing in recent years. The cultural relics on display are all unearthed in Shaoxing, showing the big picture from the small and the profound from the shallow. 🌟Important collections Huiji Bronze Mirror, King Yue's Sword, Southern Qi Weiwei Stone Buddha Although there are no national treasures, there are quite a few "eye-catching" cultural relics, which are more interesting than the crowded tourist attractions. 💃🏻
