I thought the Shaanxi History Museum was spectacular until I went to the new museum!

"One hundred years to see Shanghai, one thousand years to see Beijing, five thousand years to see Xi 'an", Xi 'an is the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty.

Do not know when, Shaanxi History Museum (small village Museum) people have been difficult to get on, really more difficult than to buy lottery tickets, Xi 'an people are not about, let alone foreign friends, but now the new museum Qin Han Museum has opened, may be far away from the city, tourists are relatively few, unless weekends or holidays, usually tickets really a lot.

The new hall is located in the New city of Qin and Han Dynasties in Xixian New District. As the name suggests, the hall mainly displays the civilization and history of Qin and Han Dynasties. There are also the ruins of Qin Xianyang Palace and the Mausoleum ruins of Western Han Dynasty around it. It is said that many of the national treasures in the old Shaanxi Museum are replicas, but the Qin and Han pavilions are genuine and worth seeing.

I did not go to the Qin and Han Pavilion when it opened, and now I feel the heat down, and I tried to book tickets on a whim within the week, and I really made an appointment. The new Hall of Qin and Han Dynasties is also designed by Master Zhang Jinqiu. The planning concept draws on the architectural complex of Qin Xianyang Palace, combining traditional culture with modern science and technology. The seven buildings inside follow the structural arrangement of the Big Dipper and blocks, symbolizing the romantic thought of Qin palace as "like heaven and earth".

The new museum is more than three times the old museum, it is really super big, walk tired everywhere can rest, the museum has cultural shops, cafes, bookstores, restaurants and other supporting facilities, eat and drink one-stop.

⭐️ must see treasure of Zhenguan: "Silk Road No. 1" Han Dynasty ship: It is the earliest wooden boat found in China at present. It is connected by different forms of mortise and tenon, and the technique is very exquisite.


In the second hall on the second floor of Shaanxi History Museum in Xiaozhai, you can see this small and delicate national treasure in the exhibition hall of Southern and Northern Dynasties relics.

Duguxin polyhedral coal essence Seal, unearthed in 1981, Xunyang County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, is the seal of the Western Wei Dynasty general Duguxin, made of coal essence, spherical 8 edges 26 faces, 14 of which are engraved with seal. Respectively "minister letter hydrophobic" and "I believe chapter on" "I believe the table" "I believe sign" "printed" "viceroy, seal" "seal of the secretariat of" "column of the printed" "DuGuXin white book" white letter "d" notice "letter" a "orders" "" "the secret ". The 14 surfaces are used for different purposes, which are divided into official documents, upper letters and short letters. They are valuable material materials for studying the seal system of the Northern Dynasty.

tips: You can take photos in the museum, you can also use a stable period (at least when I took the security did not say no, when shooting must not interfere with others' normal visit), and finally, finally, the most important thing is that if you are going to the sun, you must do a good job of sun protection (wear a hat, sunscreen clothes will do), because there is no shelter from the door to the "up road" into the museum.
