Jiangning Imperial Silk Manufacturing Museum

It is so close to Cao Xueqian and the Red Mansion Dream, which enriched my experience. After entering the door, there is no cave. There is a small garden and there is a stage inside. You can imagine the scene in the Red Mansion Dream. The exhibits are also very good and worth a visit.

Excellent value for money. Can fully understand the development history of Jiangning Weaving Department and the family history of Cao Xueqi, the author of "Dream of Red Mansions". There is also a comprehensive and detailed introduction to the history of the evolution of the flag, and the family likes it very much.

Much much better than I thought, so much more, thanks to the place was fun, tour group wouldn’t go because it’s free, but really worth a day.

Jiangning Weaving Museum is a garden-style building in Jiangnan, with a Red Building Dream Literature Museum inside. Cao Xueqi's Grand View Garden is based on this as a prototype for reference...​ While understanding that history, it seems to be in it...​ Kangxi six down Jiangnan, lived here five times, Sure enough, it is well-deserved... Not only the museum, but also the Red Mansion Literature Museum on the second floor of the art museum. The family of the author Cao Xueqi and the relationship and main chapters of the Red Mansion dream characters he created have made special interpretations, so that readers can understand the past of the author and create the Red Mansion. The original intention of the dream. The rise and fall of the family, the changes of the times, the characters in the pen are all depicted in the incisive... Here you can have multiple angles of the red building, understand the red building... The outdoor pavilion on the third floor has a cave, and the Jiangnan garden style design of the sky is cleverly designed. The open-air stage built by the Caofu Theatre is hidden inside. It seems to be in the Grand View Garden. It is recorded that Cao Xueqian wrote the Grand View Garden as a prototype. After all, Jiangning weaving has profound significance for Cao's fathers and even grandfathers.

From the Ming Dynasty, Jiangning weaving was specially made for the silk weaving required by the court, and this was the case in the Qing Dynasty. In Kangxi's two years, the director of this state-owned textile factory was changed to "Jiangning Weaving Langzhong", it is said that it is both the director, privately and the ears of Kangxi emperor, and the first Lang named Cao Yu, is Cao Xueqian's great-grandfather, deeply trusted by Kangxi. Cao Xueqian's fathers and fathers have served in Jiangning Weaving for three generations, and the fate of Cao's family has been inseparable from the beginning with Jiangning Weaving Mansion, and the Grand View Garden in "Dream of Red Mansions" is based on this.

Very worth it, exquisite, not many people, the environment and exhibits are very good

In addition to Jiangning weaving history and Nanjing Yunjin, there are also quite a few exhibition halls that introduce "Dream of Red Mansions" and Cao Xueqi. This is because Cao's family has been Jiangning weaving for several generations, and it is inextricably linked. The trip to Jiangning Weaving Museum is not only to understand the few beautiful and beautiful clothes that are out of the world, but also to walk into the Grand View Garden like the Dream of Red Mansions. ​

Very satisfied, very worthwhile, the environment is very good, there are not many people, the exhibits are very beautiful
