Jiangsu Yangzhou | Check in at the newly popular museum

📝Note tips: China Grand Canal Museum can be called an internet-famous museum. You need to book at least 3 or 4 days in advance, and you must go according to the scheduled time. If you go too early, you cannot enter. If you are lucky enough to book a morning session, you can have a whole day to visit. ❤Recommended reason: China Grand Canal Museum has 14 distinctive exhibition spaces. Visitors can learn about the changes of the Grand Canal in the museum. The Grand Canal of China began in the Spring and Autumn period, was first connected during the Sui Dynasty, and flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties. It includes the Sui-Tang Grand Canal, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and the East Zhejiang Canal, with a total length of more than 2700 kilometers. It has been over 2500 years, spanning eight provincial administrative regions including Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang, connecting the Haihe, Yellow River, Huaihe, Yangtze River, and Qiantang River water systems. It was the major artery of communication between east and west, north and south in ancient China. It also connected to the Silk Road to the west and extended the maritime trade route to the east.
