Zhejiang Museum is a comprehensive museum integrating cultural relics collection, research, display and education. It gathers the most exquisite cultural relics in Zhejiang and even the whole country, showcasing the unique charm of Chinese aesthetics. 🏮The exterior design of the museum is antique and complements the surrounding natural scenery. Walking into the museum, it feels like traveling through time and space and returning to the ancient times thousands of years ago. 🌿The museum displays a wealth of cultural relics, including ceramics, calligraphy and painting, bronze ware, etc. Each cultural relic embodies the hard work and wisdom of ancient craftsmen and showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Chinese aesthetics. Food: After leaving the museum, I went to eat Xinjiang cuisine. The taste was great. The waiters were all from Xinjiang and it was very authentic. The name of the restaurant is: Narat Xinjiang Xinjiang Cuisine (Meiyuan Branch). If you are interested, you can also try it~ ✨Summary: Because it is a new museum, it is still very comfortable to visit as a whole. The place is large and the cultural relics on display are also very rich. If you have enough time, you can visit it for a whole day. 🚗Location: Located on the beautiful West Lake

To understand the development of celadon in China, one must understand the important role Zhejiang played in ancient celadon production and culture. Celadon production in Zhejiang can be traced back to the Xia and Shang dynasties, when the ancestors of Zhejiang successfully fired primitive celadon in the Dongtiao River basin, marking the beginning of Chinese porcelain production. From the Xia and Shang dynasties to the Eastern Han dynasty, Zhejiang's primitive celadon production went through a process of initial development to maturity, forming several large-scale production centers. The characteristics of Zhejiang celadon include a hard and delicate body and a bright and lustrous green glaze. For example, Yue kiln celadon is known for its thin body, even glaze, and bright and lustrous green color. It reached its peak in the Tang dynasty, becoming a tribute to the court and an important trade ceramic. In addition, Longquan celadon began in the Three Kingdoms and Jin dynasties and flourished in the Song and Yuan dynasties, known for its "jade-like green, mirror-like brightness, and chime-like sound." The historical background of Zhejiang celadon shows that its production and technology reached its peak in the Tang dynasty. Before the Tang dynasty, China's porcelain industry was mainly concentrated in Zhejiang. In the Tang and Song dynasties, Zhejiang celadon kilns, represented by Yue and Longquan kilns, were technologically advanced. Yue kiln celadon was closely related to the tea-drinking fashion of the Tang dynasty, and its porcelain quality and glaze color were loved by tea drinkers.

When visiting the Zhejiang Provincial Museum, a large sedan chair attracts many visitors to stop and watch. Ordinary sedan chairs are generally seen by people, even if they are rarely seen now, but they are occasionally used during Chinese-style weddings. But today I saw this eight-carried sedan chair called "Wangong Sedan Chair," which is difficult to see elsewhere. This is a red and gold wood-carved Ningbo sedan chair. This Ningbo sedan chair was built by ten craftsmen over ten years, with more than 10,000 working hours, so it is called "Wangong Sedan Chair," which is the highest-grade sedan chair and the most luxurious sedan chair in existence. The sedan chair is made of light and strong materials, so camphor, ginkgo, and other woods are generally used. The body of this sedan chair adopts a mortise and tenon structure, and the content is extremely rich, combining Chinese and Western styles, and combining rigidity and flexibility. This sedan chair is mainly decorated with red lacquer wood carvings, with hundreds of figures, flowers, birds, insects, and animals carved in the round or in relief, so it is also called "Baizi Sedan Chair." The pavilions and towers "perform" famous opera scenes such as "Water Margin," "The Story of the Washing Silk," "The Story of the West Chamber," "The Story of the Hairpin," and "The Story of the Jade Bracelet." As the sedan chair moves, the characters on the stage begin to rotate and "perform." The sedan chair's clothes embroidered with gold and silver and the small wooden palace lanterns rise and fall with the swaying of the sedan chair. The glass wind chimes make a pleasant sound when the wind blows. The double-layer glass paintings on the four sides of the sedan chair are selected from auspicious themes such as "Heavenly Palace Blessing," "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea," "Kirin Sending Children," "Hehe Erxian," "Golden Dragon and Colorful Phoenix," "Joy on the Eyebrows," and "Pomegranate Opening a Hundred Sons." The sunlight shines on the sedan chair, making it look like a golden shrine. This "Wangong Sedan Chair" is one of the top ten treasures of the Zhejiang Provincial Museum. If you have the opportunity to visit the Zhejiang Provincial Museum's Zhijiang Pavilion, you must go and admire this rare "Wangong Sedan Chair."

The Zhejiang Museum (Zhijiang Branch) exhibition "Zhejiang: 10,000 Years" is a chronological exhibition that uses artifacts to tell the story of Zhejiang's history. The exhibition features a wide range of artifacts from different historical periods, presenting visitors with a rich, exciting, and magnificent historical picture. The large number of artifacts from the Liangzhu Culture are particularly impressive. Zhejiang Province is one of the birthplaces of ancient Chinese civilization and traditional Chinese culture, and is home to a rich cultural heritage. Zhejiang's cultural heritage is diverse, including the Neolithic Liangzhu Culture and Hemudu Culture, as well as regional cultures such as Jiangnan Culture and Song Yun Culture. These cultures not only demonstrate Zhejiang's deep historical roots, but also reflect its important position in Chinese culture. The ancestors who once lived on this land evolved from primitive hunting and slash-and-burn farming to simple pottery making and livestock raising, and from tribal living to building stilt houses. Both production methods and social forms have developed and changed throughout history. Our ancestors used their hands and wisdom to continuously create history, leaving behind a rich material and spiritual wealth for us today. This exhibition is well worth a visit.

The Zhijiang Branch of Zhejiang Museum officially opened to the public on August 29. The new Zhijiang Branch is located in the Zhejiang Zhijiang Cultural Center, with a construction area of 100,000 square meters, an exhibition area of 32,012 square meters, a building height of 59.9 meters, eight floors above ground, and two floors underground. It is the largest single building in the Zhijiang Cultural Center and a modern public cultural space integrating collection, protection, research, display, publicity, education, and cultural experience. The exhibition and public service space of the new Zhijiang Branch of Zhejiang Museum is located from the first floor underground to the fourth floor above ground. The exhibition planning is based on the principles of "ideological height, academic depth, and humanistic temperature" to build a "159" diversified exhibition system. The "Ten Thousand Years of Zhejiang" general history exhibition uses archaeological achievements and cultural relics to construct the grand history of Zhejiang, highlighting the highlights of Zhejiang's history, as well as the origins of rice cultivation, silk, porcelain, etc., reflecting the contribution of Zhejiang's humanities and technological development to Chinese civilization and even world civilization; five Zhejiang cultural thematic exhibitions decode Zhejiang's unique cultural genes from the perspectives of celadon culture, marine culture, Song Yun culture, painting and calligraphy culture, and celebrity culture; nine functional expansion and experience exhibitions have the characteristics of personalization, diversification, and quality, and also have a sense of technology and experience. The visit time is about five hours.

Zhejiang is the birthplace of porcelain and the main production area of ancient celadon. If the Yue Kiln celadon of the Tang Dynasty is as smooth as ice, then the Longquan celadon of the Song Dynasty is as warm as jade. Ceramics are transformed from clay, absorbing the agility of water, the depth of earth, and the tempering of fire, forming various types of ceramics such as celadon, white porcelain, black pottery, and purple sand. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, dragon kilns had become commonly used kilns in Zhejiang. They were built on sloping hillsides and consisted of three parts: the combustion chamber, the firing chamber, and the smoke chamber. Dragon kilns had the advantages of low construction cost, fast burning speed, and easy temperature rise and rapid cooling. During the Jin Dynasty, the craftsmen of the Yue Kiln dug a small window every 1.3 meters on the kiln wall as a place to put firewood, ensuring that the porcelain blanks were all within the range of the burning firewood. The kiln workers invented various kiln tools to improve the firing method, such as saggars, pads, rings, and support nails, which greatly improved the yield of porcelain. The fire mirror is a piece of glaze installed near the firewood hole. When the temperature cone is seen to have softened and bent, a long iron hook can be used to pick out the fire mirror, and the finished porcelain can be seen after cooling.

✨The Zhejiang Museum in Hangzhou is easily accessible by subway! 🏛️I was amazed by the grand scale of the Zhejiang Museum as soon as I walked in! I felt like I couldn't finish the tour even if I came early in the morning, as there are more than a dozen exhibition halls in the main building. I visited six exhibition halls in the afternoon, and I plan to come back earlier next time to see them all. 🔍Starting with prehistoric culture, the museum presents a long history. Many of the exhibits were unearthed locally in Zhejiang, and I felt a strong connection to them, as if I could hear them telling ancient stories. I felt that every exhibit here has its own story, especially when I followed the guide and listened to the guide's explanation, I felt I learned a lot.

I have been to Hangzhou several times and visited all the major attractions, so I thought of going to a less popular spot, the Zhejiang Museum, to take a look. However, there were still many people, mostly parents bringing their children to gain knowledge. The museum is quite large, and even a cursory tour takes more than an hour. The most impressive exhibits include the little pig, bronze mirrors, the sailing sculpture, and the large flower sedan chair, as shown in the photos. If you have finished touring outdoor attractions like West Lake and Xixi, and want to gain some knowledge while avoiding the heat, Zhejiang Museum is the perfect choice.

Zhejiang Provincial Museum It is difficult to see in one day, and you need to invest about two days. If you study Chinese Liangzhu culture and go, it is recommended because it is easier to understand. Most of the signs are in English, and there are no Korean signs. However, it is written at a level that can be understood by Koreans with Korean parents who graduated from middle and high school in Korea. There are many relics to see, including pottery, porcelain, and bronzeware - the bronzeware of the family, the era of the Seven Heroes, and the Song Dynasty ^^

Speaking of the museum, the top ten treasures are a must-see. Here are a few photos of the treasures for everyone, not all of them, leaving some suspense for you to see on-site.

"To the East is the Sea - Zhejiang Marine Culture Exhibition" is the first historical and archaeological exhibition in China with the theme of regional marine civilization. The 1,000-square-meter exhibition space tells the story of Zhejiang people and the ocean from prehistoric times to the Ming and Qing dynasties. The earliest seafood industry: starting with canoes and spearfishing The earliest canoe discovered in China is the "First Canoe of China" which has been moored at Kuahu Bridge for more than 8,000 years. More than 8,000 years ago, along the coast of eastern Zhejiang, the ancestors of Jingtou Mountain had already shot fish darts into the sea. The people of Jingtoushan mainly made a living by gathering, fishing and hunting near the coast, and fish darts were the main fishing tools at the time, representing the coastal life of the people of Jingtoushan. The Jingtoushan site in Yuyao, Ningbo, which dates back 8,300 years, is the earliest and deepest shell mound site discovered in China to date. A large number of marine shellfish and marine fish remains have been unearthed from the cultural layer of the site. More than 1,000 years earlier than the Hemudu culture, the Jingtoushan site has great academic value in studying the origin of China's maritime culture and was selected as one of the "Top Ten Archaeological Discoveries in China in 2020." The Great Wall on the Sea that Cannot Be Moved: Advanced Seawall Haining Yuling Stone Pond, the Great Wall and the Grand Canal are known as the three major ancient engineering projects in my country. In the 21st year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty (1542), Huang Guangsheng, the assistant water conservancy official of Zhejiang Province, took the strengths of various companies and pioneered the five horizontal and five vertical fish scale ponds in Haiyan. The fish scale pond has a strong ability to resist erosion and is known as the "eternal pond". In the Qing Dynasty, Zhejiang Governor Zhu Shi, Grand Secretary Ji Zengyun and others improved on the basis of their predecessors, and the Fish Scale Stone Pond in Haining became a typical pond type in Zhejiang during the Qing Dynasty. Looking at the pond from the side, the stone layers are arranged like fish scales, neat, beautiful and solid, so it is named "Fish Scale Pond". The first appearance of the "foreign trade hit": they travel on merchant ships and pass through ports Among the commercial ports in eastern Zhejiang, Ningbo Port is the most famous. With the discovery of the ruins of the ancient port of Shuomen in Wenzhou, Wenzhou Port has been confirmed as one of the important ports for maritime trade in my country since the Song and Yuan Dynasties. The "foreign trade hit" Longquan celadon a thousand years ago entered the sea from Wenzhou and went to the world. Rare Buddhist art treasures in the same frame: Witnessing the history of the sea Two precious Buddhist scriptures are exhibited together for the first time: two volumes of the Lotus Sutra. Both are classics of the Tiantai Sect, one is a printed version from the Tang and Five Dynasties, and the other is a handwritten version from the Northern Song Dynasty. The latter was written in silver, while words such as "Buddha" and "Tathagata" were written in gold. After more than a thousand years, the silver characters have oxidized and faded, while the gold characters are still shining. Time has been left on the scriptures in a visible way. At the end of the exhibition, a multimedia video takes us back to the time when Zhejiang people stepped out on the waves, starting with canoes, fishing boats, merchant ships, ferries... Generations of Zhejiang people have lived on the sea, resisted the tides, and engaged in trade and cultural exchanges at sea. The ocean is a symbol of freedom and openness. To the east is the sea, the future and hope.

The "Four-Sided Pavilion" is a special display cabinet. It is represented by four figures: Su Shi, Yue Fei, Li Qingzhao and Lin Hejing.

It's raining in Hangzhou, between the misty rain in Lingyin of West Lake and the cultural tour of Zhejiang Museum, I chose the latter. Zhejiang Provincial Museum has many treasures with a long history, many of which are very precious national treasures, such as the 'Double Birds Facing the Sun' ivory carved butterfly-shaped utensil from the Hemudu period, the jade cong king of the Liangzhu culture, the sword of the King of Yue in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, etc. Unfortunately, the 'Remaining Mountain Map' of Huang Gongwang's 'Fuchun Mountain Residence Map' was not on display, and I couldn't see its true face. I also look forward to the 'Useless Teacher Scroll' being able to reappear in the future; the Zhejiang Library next door is also very worth visiting.
