As an amateur museum lover who is not majoring in museum science, I have visited dozens of museums, large and small, some for work needs and some for simple hobbies. Please recommend some special museums that I have visited. 1.? Shandong Provincial Museum
Shandong Bo is definitely one of the museums that are friendly to professionals. As a major province of cultural relics, Shandong Province has a large collection of Neolithic and Shang and Zhou cultural relics. The eggshell black pottery and the bronze wares of Qilu in middle school history books look really shocking. If you bring a little friend, you must go to the exhibition of the great migration of East African animals on the top floor. All kinds of fluffy animals are particularly realistic. 2. Hubei Provincial Museum
Hubei Provincial Museum must see: bells chimed by Zeng Houyi, Qin bamboo slips of Sleeping Tiger Land, Gou Jianjian, the King of Yue, and the skull of Yunxian people.
The exhibition in Ceng Houyi mainly displays the cultural relics of Zeng State (PS: Jingzhou Museum is recommended if you want to see the cultural relics of Chu State). During the viewing, you can buy tickets for the chime performance of Zeng Houyi and feel the chime performance on the spot. 3.? Xuzhou Museum
Xuzhou, as the capital of Chu State in Han Dynasty, has excavated one cliff cave tomb after another, and unearthed many exquisite cultural relics, such as gold and jade clothes. Some of these cultural relics are in Xuzhou Museum, and some are in museums built according to tombs. Therefore, if you visit a museum in Xuzhou, you must join the Han Tomb Museum in addition to the Expo. The Han Tomb Museum recommends the Chu Tomb of Lion Mountain and the Han Tomb of Guishan Mountain. Of course, there is also a Han tomb in Xuzhou Museum, which is being excavated now, hoping to open it to the public as soon as possible. 4.? Luoyang Tomb Museum
Luoyang Tomb Museum, also known as Luoyang Ancient Art Museum, is definitely worth visiting, although it is in the suburbs of Luoyang, preferably in summer! There are dozens of tombs of various dynasties, and you can visit the tomb structure of various tombs at close range. Next to it is the mausoleum area of the Northern Wei emperors, with the original ecological Jingling and the restored tomb of the Yuan nobles. You can learn a lot by visiting once. Moreover, the tombs are all underground, which is an excellent attraction for summer vacation. 5.? Hanyang Mausoleum Museum
Hanyang Mausoleum is a cemetery where Liu Qi and his queen Wang share the same cave. It is a museum built on the original site. The museum displays not only the collections, but also the burial pits, ritual buildings, and criminal cemeteries. 6.? China ceramics museum
This museum is located in Jingdezhen, which is an upgrade of the original Jingdezhen Expo. It was built in 2115, so the design of this museum is still full of modern flavor. The disadvantage is that it is too far away from the urban area of Jingdezhen. It takes a long time to drive, and the traffic in Jingdezhen is super inconvenient! Look at the collection inside, and you will be surprised that human brain holes are really endless. If you travel to Jingdezhen, this museum can also visit together with the ruins of the Imperial Kiln Factory, which burned porcelain for the royal family in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The two places, ancient and present, can fully feel the literary atmosphere of Jingdezhen.
In fact, these recommended museums are very experiential, which is very suitable for archaeologists or museum lovers to visit, and it is also very suitable for taking children to experience the massiness and vastness of history. I hope you can have a deeper insight during the visit!
