Crowd (Xi'an)

A museum that has managed to become an internet sensation, with no off-peak season, and is hard to book every day Tickets are released four times a day, and I had to set three alarms to get them Once inside, there are people everywhere, especially in the first exhibition hall at the entrance, which is truly a crowd mode, not to mention difficult to move, but also hard to walk What surprised me was that, although there were many people, and many young girls in Tang costumes, there were basically no staged photos, everyone was focused on looking at the cultural relics, and photos were taken outside in the courtyard, this atmosphere is very good, in stark contrast to Luoyang next door I don't want to say too much about the exhibits themselves, the positions of many national treasures are relatively fixed, there are not as many routines as Nanjing Museum, you can see everything at once, but a small part of the exhibits are replicas, I don't know if it's because of a business trip or other reasons. For example, the Warring States Period Tiger Tally, the gilded silver bamboo joint bronze incense burner, and the gilded bronze silkworm are all replicas Most of the bronze ware in the first exhibition hall comes from Baoji, so it's understandable that Baoji Bronze Ware Museum is a bit resentful, but Shanxi Museum also has its setbacks, the national treasure Li Gui was requisitioned by the National Museum, and the "first ancient object in China" ☞ Stone Drum was snatched away by the Palace Museum I guess the only ones who can make Shanxi Museum swallow its pride are these two big brothers Some cultural relics are quite interesting, such as the two sumo wrestling pottery figurines, through the introduction I learned that sumo wrestling was a military sport that emerged in our country during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, became popular during the Qin and Han dynasties, began to be called "sumo wrestling" during the Tang dynasty, was introduced to Japan during the Nara period, and was later promoted by Japan, becoming its national skill Another example is the gilded iron core bronze dragon in picture 10, the shape is domineering and lively, this name makes people feel a bit awkward, iron core bronze dragon, is it iron or bronze There is also the ivory carved radish in picture 12, which is placed in a not very conspicuous position, it's a bit too realistic, it's not too much to call it a masterpiece Finally, let's talk about the prices in the museum, Nongfu Spring is five yuan, other commodity prices are self-explanatory, the fourth exhibition hall exhibits the cultural relics unearthed from Hejiacun cellar ☞ charge 30, the mural hall is even more fierce ☞ charge 270, you may say that such precious cultural relics, no matter how much you charge, I won't argue with you, anyway, the National Museum is free, whether you are willing to pay these three Chairman Mao, it's up to you
