Visit the Grand Canal Museum

On a sunny morning, my parents and I took a boat to visit the China Grand Canal Museum on the east side of Chen Gong Bridge, and finished the homework for the second class.

Entering the museum gate, I saw a sailboat parked in the middle of the hall, and the words China Canal Museum were written on the sail. Walking into another hall along the passage on the left side of the hall, I saw the detailed introduction of the museum on a huge wall. In order to let tourists know more about the development history of the canal. The museum is divided into five exhibition halls: orderly hall, first exhibition hall, second exhibition hall, third exhibition hall and fourth exhibition hall.

What attracted me most was the first exhibition hall, which described the excavation and changes of the canal. Beijing-Hangzhou Canal? Grand Canal? . China ancient great water conservancy project.
