The mysterious Zongmu and Tongtian bronzes in Sanxingdui have shocked the world for three thousand years!

At the moment in front of the Sanxingdui sacrificial artifacts, my worldview was shattered and rebuilt‼️ 🌳【Bronze Sacred Tree】 This 3.96-meter-tall bronze sacred tree, has three layers and nine branches, with a sun god bird perched on each branch tip. This is not just a cultural relic, it’s basically the ancient Shu people's "cosmic express"📦 directly embodying the channel connecting heaven and earth! 🗿【Bronze Standing Giant Statue】 This 1.8-meter-tall bronze giant, with its hands crossed in front, remains a mystery🤔 Some say it’s praying, some say it’s holding a ritual object, but that solemn and majestic feeling, still strikes the heart across three thousand years💥 👁️【Zongmu Mask】 The most amazing is this bronze eyeball protruding 16cm! The ancient Shu people's "Zongmu" worship is so mesmerizing, it’s almost like an alien civilization👽 But archaeologists say it might be a deification of King Cancong of Shu, who taught the ancestors sericulture, so the eyes are especially prominent...🐛 🐉【Dragon and Snake Worship】 Various dragon- and snake-shaped bronzes, with details exquisitely crafted to an unbelievable degree! The ancient Shu people infused their reverence for nature into these mysterious patterns🌟 📍Address: No. 133 Xi’an Road, Guanghan City, Sichuan Province ⏰Opening Hours: 8:30-18:00 (Last entry at 17:00) The biggest feeling from visiting Sanxingdui is: What we think is mysterious, was actually the daily life of the ancients; What we think is absurd, is actually another kind of reality✨ The ancient Shu civilization from three thousand years ago, cast a parallel universe in bronze, waiting to be reinterpreted...
