It is said that "China saw Shanxi in five thousand years". I want to go to Shanxi Museum recently. What exhibits are worth seeing?

There is a saying that "China sees Shanxi in five thousand years". As one of the most intact provinces in China, Shanxi has a rich and colorful cultural landscape with both ancient and modern characteristics, from ancient human cultural sites to ancient capital cities, from Baosha Temple to grotto inscriptions.

If you want to see China for five thousand years in one day, you must go to Shanxi Museum!

The main body of Shanxi Museum is a square building, like a tripod, with huge stone pillars standing on both sides of the square. There are four floors in the interior, with the theme of "Jin Soul", which is divided into seven historical and cultural themes and five artistic theme exhibition halls.

The contents of the exhibition on the fourth floor are shown in the following figure. Although the most convenient way to visit is to take the straight ladder to the fourth floor and then go down one floor at a time, I still suggest that you go up slowly from the first floor, which will give you a feeling of pursuing history.

The exhibition content of each floor is very rich, so you won't be lost in thought when you look at it. Pick a few impressive places to share with you.

The first floor is mainly a temporary exhibition hall and a cultural and creative store. Different contents will be exhibited in the temporary exhibition hall at different times. The latest exhibition is "Fragrant Soul-China Ancient Fragrant Culture Exhibition". A total of 160 pieces/group of exhibits and works of art related to incense culture were exhibited in the exhibition, which were divided into four units, from incense materials and incense vessels to incense objects and scents, to tell about the incense culture in China.

Before showing the charm of ancient literati's life, I suddenly felt very vulgar when I thought of the incense sticks I usually bought.

On the second floor of the exhibition hall, the four Chinese characters in the middle of the wall are sharp as knives, and the blue and black signs of the state of Jin on the wall are very shocking under the bright modern lights.

Standing for a few seconds reminds me of our teacher's passionate appearance when he talked about striving for hegemony and competing for the Central Plains.

On this floor, don't miss the bird statue, the treasure of the town. The cultural relic printed in the upper right corner of the ticket is a bird statue. I didn't see it when I went. Officially, I'm going to join the League, and I should be able to go back to the museum in late May.

The bird statue unearthed in the cemetery of Jinhou, the cultural site of Qucun, is mainly shaped by a phoenix looking back, with its head slightly tilted and its crown erect. The bird is plump and its wings are rolled up. On the back of the phoenix bird, a bird quietly depends on each other and becomes the watcher on the cover of the bird image.

I happened to see the sharing of the bird statue before, saying that the shape of the bird statue should be an accurate look back at the bird statue, and its characteristic is that its tail is inward. Birds are generally alert when they look back. In this state, their tails are usually involved.

The two birds in the bird statue are in different states. The big bird turned back, its tail rolled in, and the little bird held its head high and its tail turned outward. It seems that because of the dedicated protection of the big bird in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the small bird Jin State can be as confident and relaxed.

If you know the corresponding background, it will be quite helpful and much more interesting to see cultural relics.

Another world-famous cultural relic, Xiāoyǒu, looks like an angry bird and is naive. I didn't know until I looked through the data that after the Qin and Han Dynasties, this naive little animal actually became a bad bird, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was accused of "eating the mother".

The exhibition hall of Shanxi merchants in Ming and Qing Dynasties on the third floor restored the process of Shanxi merchants from glory to decline, and also understood why Shanxi became the economic center of China in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Relieved the regret of not being able to go to the Shanxi Merchants Museum.

The elements such as carriages, money houses, banks and account books are arranged in an orderly way, and there are many models of Shanxi merchants' compound. When I saw the model of the Qiao Family Courtyard, I suddenly brought it back to my childhood when I was watching the Qiao Family Courtyard and formed a wonderful connection.

Many Buddhist relics from the Northern Dynasties and the Tang Dynasty are displayed in the exhibition hall, which is also worth a closer look. Although all kinds of stones and gilded Buddha statues have different shapes and mottled traces of time, they can all give people a quiet power.

If you love porcelain and architecture, the fourth floor is the treasure base. Mortise and tenon, arch, cornice, glass, mural, jade, ritual vessels, accessories, coins, etc. All of them are dazzling and can increase a lot of knowledge.

In addition, the Wenchuang shops on the first and fourth floors can be stamped, and 47 can be built if all of them are collected, and some of them can only be built after consumption. These chapters are exquisite and lovely. If you are careful, you can find the corresponding exhibits in the museum. If you can't find them, they may be in the branch.

If you take a notebook with you, you might as well collect the seals in the museum.

There is also a branch of Shanxi Museum called Shanxi Bronze Museum (address: Jingguang Road 13, Jinyuan District, Taiyuan City), which is the first provincial bronze museum in China and exhibits more than 2,000 cultural relics.

In addition to the two museums mentioned above, there are many good museums and art galleries worth visiting in Taiyuan. I recommend some for you.

Taiyuan Museum, Shanxi geological museum, Taiyuan Shanxi Merchants Museum, Taiyuan Used Car Culture Museum.
