🔥 Shaanxi History Museum: A treasure of time and space in the pearl of the ancient capital 🔥

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 As China's first large-scale modern national museum, the Shaanxi History Museum showcases the civilization pulse of the ancient capital of 13 dynasties with its Tang-style architectural complex of "central hall and four corner towers". The museum houses more than 1.7 million collections, ranging from Lantian ape-man remains to Tang Dynasty murals, spanning millions of years of history, like a three-dimensional "Encyclopedia of Chinese Civilization." Must-experience highlights: 1️⃣ Immersive experience of Qin and Han civilization: The newly opened Qin and Han Museum recreates the splendor of the imperial capital with the layout of the "Big Dipper". Through national treasures such as the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, gilded bronze silkworms, etc., it reveals the military secrets of the Qin Empire and the glory of the Silk Road. 2️⃣ Exhibition of the Essence of Tang Dynasty Art: The basic exhibition consists of seven units of "Ancient Shaanxi Civilization", which fully presents the institutional civilization and artistic achievements of the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties. Among them, the "Atmosphere of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty" unit reproduces the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Period with cultural relics such as tri-color camel figurines and golden bowls with mandarin duck and lotus petal patterns. 3️⃣ Technology empowers culture: The museum uses VR and AI technology to create virtual exhibitions, allowing visitors to become "time travelers" and experience the music and dance of the prosperous Tang Dynasty; the Tang Niu animation IP brings cultural relics to life as cute images, narrowing the distance between history and modern times. 📌 Tips • Transportation: 5 minutes walk from Xiaozhai Station on Metro Line 2/3, or 40 minutes by airport bus. • Tips for visiting: It is recommended to visit the Qin and Han Dynasty Museum (Xixian New District) first, and then go to the main museum (Yanta District). The exhibitions in the two places complement each other, allowing you to fully explore Chinese civilization. • Gift recommendation: The “Tang Niu” series of cultural and creative products in the museum integrate the aesthetics of the prosperous Tang Dynasty into modern life, making it a great choice to commemorate this trip. From the stone tools of the Lantian ape-man to the gilded artifacts of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the Shaanxi History Museum invites you to travel through time and space to witness the brilliant brilliance of Chinese civilization.
