When I was young, I learned at school that the four great civilizations of the world were the Nile, Tigris-Euphrates, Indus, and Yellow River civilizations in China, all of which were 4,000 years old. Now it is no longer the Yellow River civilization, but rather that civilizations began in several places in China, and the Chinese civilization is generally considered to be 5,000 years old. The Liangzhu ruins in Zhejiang Province have been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. I was excited and went to see the Liangzhu ruins right away! ! ......... Nothing there........... A farming area, perhaps a field or rice paddy. Beyond that was a pile of earth, and it was evidence that some important person had lived there. I was half-giving up, wondering if I had really come all the way there, when the Banshan ruins (cemetery) and the Western City Wall appeared. It seems that there are many excavated items at the Banshan ruins. The Western City Wall is also a 6m pile of earth, built on an island in the middle of a river, and there is a river flowing inside and outside the site. It was built with great planning to be used for transportation while defending the castle. Don't underestimate 5000 years ago. After that, we took a taxi to the Liangzhu Museum. 20 minutes. Quite far away. This museum is very beautiful and I learned more after visiting the actual ruins. Although it is not the Liangzhu ruins, female human bones are also on display, and I wondered what they looked like and what kind of life they lived. We took a taxi 7km from Liangzhu Station, the terminus of Hangzhou Subway Line 2.

Liangzhu Museum is another UNESCO World Heritage cite. Part of the Liangzhu Culture Village, it offers the visitors several galleries representing different stages of development of Liangzhu culture - ancient society that spread it's influence in the East of China. Quick advice: there are many volunteer guides who'll be happy to take you through all the galleries, and they speak really good English. #wintergetaway

During the Qingming Festival, if there is no drizzling rain, it is definitely a good time to travel. I have been to Liangzhu Cultural Village six times. Hangzhou's back garden, the picturesque ruins of an ancient city. It is shaded by green trees and features works by many famous architects. Over the past five thousand years, the most advanced human wisdom has met here. Recommend the four most worthwhile buildings: Liangzhu Museum - Liangzhu Culture and Art Center (Big Roof) - Meilizhou Church - National Library of China [Clover] Liangzhu Museum First we came to the Liangzhu Museum, designed by David Chipperfield and inspired by the "Jade Cong". The jade Cong, which is square outside and round inside, is the highest-level ritual vessel used for offering sacrifices to heaven in ancient China. The main body of the building is composed of four inclined cubes, and the facade is made of yellowish-brown stone, echoing the warm texture of Liangzhu jade. The entire museum has four exhibition halls, telling the story of the Liangzhu ruins and the civilizations of the same period in 2000 BC (Sumerian civilization, etc.). The map displayed in the museum is very subjective and shows that the Liangzhu culture surrounded the entire Taihu Lake basin, with the Fanshan Royal Tomb in Yuhang as its center. The Guangfulin site in Shanghai was influenced or ruled by it. The low hills surrounding Liangzhu are the switch of civilization. The streams left over from the mountains converged into rivers. The ancient ancestors of Liangzhu used the terrain to shape dams, built reservoirs next to them, diverted river water into ditches, and used canoes as a means of transportation to connect the entire city. It is precisely because of this developed water conservancy project that stable agricultural income has been created. Farewell to slash-and-burn agriculture, the accumulation of material civilization gave birth to the classes of theocracy and monarchy. Customs that seem backward today were representatives of advanced systems 5,000 years ago. In the Fanshan Royal Tomb site, the king and queen were buried in two separate tombs, and the jade artifacts buried with them were also different. The system of monogamous marriage has existed since then. The queen must come from a powerful tribe or a class that holds divine power. The most amazing treasures of Liangzhu culture, including the Jade Cong King, Jade Axe and Jade Yue, are collected in the Zhijiang New Building of Zhejiang Provincial Museum. It is exquisitely crafted and huge in size, demonstrating a high level of craftsmanship. Those who are interested can go to the museum by the Qianjiang River to observe it up close. [Tulip] Liangzhu Culture and Art Center (Big Roof) The large roof was designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando, ​​a typical minimalist aesthetic of bare concrete and a poetic fusion of natural elements. The roof is abstracted into the shape of a "jade cong" with a square outside and a round inside. The surface is specially polished to present a delicate texture, and it has a soft halo under the sunlight, echoing the warm texture of Liangzhu jade. The large roof, like a "sky curtain", covers the three functional blocks, forming a "品"-shaped layout. The cherry blossoms faded very quickly this year and disappeared in early April. Next year, you should go early so that hundreds of pink Somei Yoshino cherry trees at the gate will bloom at the same time, which is very dreamy. The interior of the building has been transformed into a large bookstore, which has many special cultural products and hosts some cultural activities. [CoconutTree] Meilizhou Church The Meilizhou Church was built very early, and was completed in 2010. Every time I come here, I just check in from the outside. The equilateral triangle portal frame system and the fir trusses with a 60-degree angle rise obliquely from the ground to form a highly tense spatial skeleton. This time, the volunteer teacher took my friends and me to visit the interior, and we were able to see the triangular transparent glass and the pure space concept constructed. The church is built on a raised piece of high ground, and the cherry blossom forest and stone lanterns on both sides of the main building square form a "Purification Road". The bronze baptismal font in the center of the square is modeled after the Liangzhu jade bi, and the columnar bell tower stands quietly. [Sakura] National Library of Chinese Editions (Hangzhou Branch) The National Library of Editions is undoubtedly the most stunning building complex. Designed by Pritzker Prize winner Wang Shu, the South Garden and North Pavilion is made of bamboo-patterned bare concrete and Longquan celadon screens. The pattern composed of turquoise tiles and exposed concrete is sparkling. In the Song Dynasty style garden, the mountain warehouse is covered with soil and regreened to blend in with the surrounding hills. The huge solid wood brackets and modern corridors create a harmonious atmosphere. The library also houses precious ancient books such as the Complete Library in Four Branches of Literature and the Yongle Encyclopedia. It is extremely helpful for understanding the origin and development of Chinese culture. Recently, the library has specially exhibited Tsai Chih-chung's Chinese studies comic series. Those who want to see it can get ready. No reservation is required on weekdays. You can enter directly by swiping your mainland China ID card. For weekend admission, just make an appointment in advance on the official mini program. When taking photos, it is recommended to wear light-colored clothes and match them with turquoise tiles, which will look great in photos. Finally, if you are planning a tour route, it is recommended to start from the farthest National Museum of Editions and then take a taxi to the Liangzhu Museum. After finishing, we will see the big roof and the Beautiful Island Church. Yu Niao Ji near the big roof is a major commercial center, full of cafes, restaurants, and trendy shops, perfect for finishing off your day.

China's Liangzhu culture has a history of 5,000 years. It was discovered by Mr. Shi Xingeng in 1936, and the existence of this ancient civilization was discovered from the ruins. The kingdom's main area is Jiaxing and Hangzhou. Due to the crisscrossing rivers, the ancient city consists of eight water gates and one land gate. People lived and multiplied here. With the progress of civilization, stone tools were upgraded, poultry were domesticated, granaries were built, and jade artifacts were made for the leaders to worship and bury with the dead. The kingdom mysteriously disappeared due to unknown factors. Its existence can only be understood from the excavation of cultural relics. It is the continuation of Majiabang civilization and the successor of Songze culture. 🏔Introduction to the venue: The first exhibition hall - Water Village and Wetland It tells the rise and development of the kingdom built on the wetland The second exhibition hall - Holy Land of Civilization The planning, construction and structural layout of the Liangzhu Ancient City are a model of early urban civilization in East Asia The third exhibition hall - Jade Soul and National Spirit The use of jade in the Liangzhu period has formed a clear hierarchy. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : If you drive, you can park in the parking lot next door for 3 yuan. 📝Note: It is recommended to visit Liangzhu Ruins Park together (free admission before March 31st) and go to Yuniaoji for dinner.

In the Han Dynasty, "xi" (for emperors and kings) and "yin" (for officials and private use) were symbols of political power and social status, as well as proof of credit. The forms of seal knobs include: inverted bucket knobs, bridge-shaped knobs, turtle knobs, and chi-tiger knobs. The ribbons attached to the knobs include green, purple, blue, black, and yellow ribbons. Han Dynasty officials usually carried their seals in a pouch at their waist, with the ribbon hanging outside. "Gold and purple" was the pursuit of countless scholars. The higher the status, the longer and finer the ribbon. If one held multiple positions, they needed to wear multiple seals and ribbons. In cases of promotion, retirement, or conviction, officials needed to return their seals and ribbons. "Returning seals and ribbons" became synonymous with resigning or being dismissed. In the Han Dynasty, the system of official clothing colors had not yet appeared. The symbols used to distinguish official ranks were the hats worn by officials and the seals and ribbons worn at their waists. Civil officials wore jin xian hats, with the number of hat beams indicating rank. Military officials wore wu bian da hats, which did not indicate rank. The material and shape of official seals were clearly regulated according to rank. Vassal kings used gold seals with turtle knobs. Marquises, chancellors, and grand marshals used gold seals with turtle knobs. Officials with salaries between 2,000 and 200 shi used copper seals with nose knobs. Officials with salaries below 200 shi used half-pass seals, which were also made of copper. The seals given to minority leaders in the Han Dynasty often had camel or snake knobs. Civil officials generally used cast seals, while military officials in urgent need of "urgent seals" or seals issued to minority officials used carved seals.

Listened to a volunteer's explanation at the Ancient City Ruins Park and was looking forward to the 2*2 cm sign, but couldn't find it after a long search. Asked the staff and was told it was moved to the Zhejiang Provincial Museum...

Liangzhu Museum covers an area of more than 40,000 square meters, with a building area of 10,000 square meters. It is a social science archaeological museum and a national first-class museum, which was first opened to the public in September 2008. Liangzhu Museum was upgraded from the Liangzhu Culture Museum. In May 1990, the construction of the Liangzhu Culture Museum was put on the agenda. In September 1991, the Yuhang County Cultural Bureau began preparations for the Liangzhu Culture Museum. In September 2008, it was renamed Liangzhu Museum. On September 29, 2008, Liangzhu Museum was opened to the public. In August 2017, based on the latest archaeological findings of the Liangzhu site and Liangzhu culture, the basic exhibition of Liangzhu Museum was upgraded. In June 2018, it was reopened to the public. The museum exhibits more than 600 pieces (sets) of precious cultural relics from the Liangzhu culture period, including jade, stone, pottery, and lacquered wood. In June 2022, Liangzhu Museum was included in the 2021 Zhejiang Museum (Memorial Hall) Directory. On May 18, 2024, Liangzhu Museum was rated as a national first-class museum. The visit takes about two hours.

One of the most talked-about exhibitions in Hangzhou recently is the "Three Silks" at the Museum of Arts and Crafts, "Dragon Casting" at the West Lake Art Museum, and the "Jade for Descendants" exhibition at the Liangzhu Museum. The exhibition is divided into five sections: "Symbols," "Eternity," "Blessings," "Happiness," and "Longevity," showcasing jade seals, funerary jade, ceremonial jade, and decorative jade, providing a comprehensive interpretation of the jade culture of the Han dynasty. Since Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions in the Western Han dynasty and Ban Chao's management of the Western Regions in the Eastern Han dynasty, the political, economic, and cultural exchanges between the Central Plains and the Western Regions have been maintained. High-quality jade from Xinjiang gradually became the mainstream material for Chinese jade. The "Six Treasures of Weiling," which are the most difficult to borrow, are made of Hetian jade, combining realism and spirituality! With the opening of the Maritime Silk Road, organic gemstones such as amber and agate began to be incorporated into the Chinese jade system. During the Western Han dynasty, the government established 49 ironworks nationwide. The artistic achievements of Han jade craftsmen are closely related to the use of iron tools. The "seal" (used exclusively by emperors and kings) and "stamp" (used by officials and private individuals) of the Han dynasty were symbols of power and trust. The material and shape of official seals were clearly regulated according to rank; most seals had knobs for attaching ribbons. The forms of seal knobs generally include: inverted bucket knobs, bridge-shaped knobs, turtle knobs, and chi-tiger knobs, with inscriptions in both positive and negative forms.

If you missed the "Jade: Stone of Heaven" exhibition at the Nanjing Museum, head to the Liangzhu Museum, designed by David Chipperfield, to see the "Yi Zi Sun" Han Dynasty jade exhibition! The exhibition features a collection of exquisite jade artifacts, and as it's near the end of the year, there aren't many visitors! The Han Dynasty was a time when the belief in immortality and the practice of lavish burials were prevalent, leading to the flourishing and peak of jade burial artifacts. After death, jade was used as plugs, clothing, and burial items, in the hope of preserving the body, keeping the soul intact, and achieving immortality. Jade burial suits, also known as "jade coffins," were used by emperors after death, with gold-threaded suits for emperors, silver-threaded suits for princes, marquises, and princesses, and bronze-threaded suits for high-ranking officials and grand princesses. The Kingdom of Dian used a variety of jade materials, with unique local features such as non-concentric jade rings, flanged bracelets (i.e., jade rings with collars), and copper buckles inlaid with jade pieces. The flanged bracelets and jade pieces with dragon patterns on the jade burial suits are evidence of cultural exchange between the Kingdom of Dian and the Central Plains.

Belt hooks, also known as "shibi" or "xibi," were tools used by ancient people to fasten belts. They consisted of a hook head, hook body, and hook button. The origin of belt hooks can be traced back to the mid-Neolithic period, with all belt hooks from the Liangzhu culture period being made of jade. Belt hooks were made from various materials, such as gold, silver, copper, iron, jade, and stone. Some were gilded or inlaid with gold and silver, while others were adorned with various gemstones. Han dynasty jade belt hooks were both practical and ornamental, becoming a symbol of the user's identity and status. The Huaxia people of the Central Plains, while continuing to use the S-shaped belt hooks of the Hu people, began to attach jade pendants, pearls, and various gold and silver ornaments to the belt hooks, symbolizing the identity and status of different groups of people. Emperor Wu of Han and Lady Gouyi, as well as King Liu Fei of Jiangdu and Chunyu Ying'er, used belt hooks as tokens of their love, symbolizing "eternal remembrance." Rabbit-shaped gold belt hooks embodied the ancient belief in "seeking children." Rabbits represented "yin" and were believed to become pregnant by gazing at the moon.

It's been a warm year, and Yuhang in Hangzhou has issued consumption vouchers. Unlike Shanghai, they can be used nationwide, so I came here to have a look. Liangzhu culture was successfully inscribed on the World Heritage List on July 6, 2019, and is a world cultural heritage site and evidence of China's 5,000-year history. *Transportation: Take the high-speed train to Hangzhou West, about 10 km from the core area of Liangzhu. I departed from Nanjing South and it took about 1 hour and 40 minutes to get to Liangzhu Cultural Village, which was quite convenient. *Local transportation: Although there are not many buses in Liangzhu, there are several buses similar to tourist lines, with fares the same as buses, 1–3 yuan, departing on the half hour on weekdays, and more frequent on weekends. *Except for the Yaoshan Altar, which is relatively far away, you can choose to ride/walk if the weather is good and you have enough energy. Although the attractions are relatively scattered, they are not particularly far apart. The ecology here is very good, and many exhibition halls and parks are connected, with a water system crisscrossing like ancient Liangzhu. *Accommodation: Yuhang has recently issued consumption vouchers, so you can stay at a better hotel like Junlan/Intercontinental. If you are on a budget, you can of course choose to stay in a B&B/chain hotel. Food: Liangzhu Cultural Village is a very artistic place called Yubird Collection. *Play: Most of the exhibition halls are free and have explanations/lectures But remember to make a reservation in advance for weekend trips, and you can make a reservation at any time on weekdays. Liangzhu Museum Special Exhibition: Jade of the Han Dynasty *National Version Museum: A large exhibition hall with its own garden, and various lectures in January. *Gallery of Famous Paintings of Past Dynasties: There are explanations at 10:00 am/14:00 pm, which are quite good if you are interested in the history of Chinese painting and calligraphy. *The above exhibition halls are not far apart, but if you look closely, one day is not enough, so I suggest two days. Photography: It's also quite beautiful in winter, and in spring and autumn, it's basically low-rise buildings and it's not in the airport area, so it's considered a suburb? Aerial photography is also very convenient.

The "Jade Soul and National Spirit" series of exhibitions at the Liangzhu Museum, "For Descendants: A Collection of Han Dynasty Jade," is a feast of Han jade, no wonder it is so well-received! Immortality and exorcism are one of the most important cultural characteristics of the Han Dynasty. Immortals, feathered men, auspiciousness, exorcism, and talismans came into being. In life, people hoped to avoid misfortune and gain longevity, and in death, they hoped to be free from evil spirits and ascend to immortality. The patterns of Han Dynasty jade containers are mostly based on auspicious beasts and divine birds. The door knocker is mainly a beast head with a ring in its mouth, which is either placed on the door of a building, embedded on the outside of a coffin, decorated on the surface of an object, or worn on the waist of the tomb owner.

The Zhejiang Liangzhu Museum, located in Hangzhou, officially opened in 2018. It showcases the ancient Liangzhu civilization from over five thousand years ago, emphasizing its significance in China's prehistoric culture. The museum houses a vast collection of precious artifacts, such as jade, pottery, and ritual items, vividly illustrating the life, beliefs, and artistic achievements of the Liangzhu people🖼️. The museum's modern architectural design blends with the natural landscape, creating a comfortable visiting environment and experience, allowing more people to understand this important historical heritage. It is worth noting that the scenery outside the museum is also very beautiful, with numerous willows🌳 and other greenery, making the visit unforgettable.

There are only three small exhibition halls and a special exhibition called "Yi Zi Sun" (meaning "good for descendants"). The museum is bright, and the glass is specially designed to have almost no reflection. All the photos were taken with a phone. Liangzhu culture has more than 1,000 primitive characters (carved symbols). The treasure of the first exhibition hall may seem unremarkable, but it has more than a dozen carved symbols that record a complete event. Unfortunately, archaeologists have not yet deciphered it, and there are many speculations. The second exhibition hall demonstrates the structure of the ancient city, which was still used in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The altar from 5,300 years ago (now Yaoshan Ruins Park), etc. The early hierarchical system, kings and royal power/priests/craftsmen, and the jade in the third exhibition hall complement each other. Here is the earliest jade cong, which is different from the taller ones we usually see, but the foundation is still round heaven and square earth. The third exhibition hall has the second treasure of the museum, a jade bi with bird carvings. All of the above complement each other. On July 6, 2019, Liangzhu culture successfully became a world cultural heritage, allowing our 5,000-year history to be recognized by the world, extending it by 1,400 years from the previous 3,600 years. The museum is actually outside the ancient city ruins. Because it is a world cultural heritage, it is required to retain its original appearance unless it can be restored. Not really a disadvantage: There is only a small cultural and creative point in the museum that provides snacks and coffee, and there are almost no restaurants around. Eat before you come. Tickets: Free Opening hours: 9:00–17:00, last admission at 16:30, closed on Mondays. In Meilizhou Park, the museum also has a nice outdoor area. You can take a walk in good weather, and it is more beautiful in spring and autumn. Guided tours: Free, Friday at 10:00 and 14:00. You can also ask if there are any on other days. About 45 minutes. Today, I met a volunteer teacher from Taiwan, Mr. Zhang, who was very enthusiastic and gave a wonderful explanation. Transportation: Not far from Hangzhou West, taxi fare is over 20, and you can also take a bus, but it is a bit detour. The subway is not very convenient.

- I came to Liangzhu for a company team building event, and took the opportunity to visit the Liangzhu Museum⛪ - The most famous thing about the museum is its beautiful architecture: .
