Fuyicang has a total of 13 buildings, of which 1, 2, 5 and 6 are currently open. The "good" word light and shadow, water drop-shaped table, thousand paper cranes "boat" shape and other art installations are in different exhibition halls, which are worth punching in for photos.

What impressed me most was the exhibit of the first building, which was composed of countless thousands of paper cranes, which made me think of the poet Tang Wenru's "A boat full of dreams pressing the stars", "A river of stars to dream" is also very apt! Under the boat is reflected in the light, like a river of stars.



The basic exhibition in the exhibition hall is composed of three sections, which are warehousing, history and charity. The warehousing chapter, with the theme of "grain transportation to secure the world", tells the development course of ancient Chinese warehousing culture and grain transportation culture. The history section, with the theme of "Fuyi remains through ancient and modern times", shows the foundation, evolution and contemporary protection of Fuyi Warehouse. The charity chapter, with the theme of "giving and enriching the people", tells the origin and influence of ancient Chinese charity culture.

In the sixth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, Tan Zhonglin, governor of Zhejiang Province, was concerned about grain reserves, so he called Ding Bing, Ying Baosi and other Hangzhou gentry to build a Fuyi warehouse.

As an important node of the Hangzhou section of the World Cultural Heritage Grand Canal, Fuyichang is a national key cultural relic protection unit. It is a well-preserved public storage building in ancient cities and the only existing ancient granary in Hangzhou. The building structure and appearance of Fuyichang dating back 144 years have been preserved to the present.

Fuyicang is a well-preserved ancient city public storage complex along the Grand Canal. It has witnessed the development of rice market and storage wharf and other economic forms. It is now the sixth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

After the renewal of the Fuyi warehouse, you can see a lot of attractive into the "small mind" -

In the exhibition space, a large area of luminous ribbon booth design is used, like a canal flowing among them, and the exhibition experience is excellent.

Hundreds of thousands of paper cranes combined with water ripple light and shadow effect to simulate the shape of the ship.

The water drop shaped device in the atrium space and the hundreds of different fonts of "good" hanging are perfect for punching out the film.


In addition to the three punch card art installations, also encountered some interesting exhibits, Juxinghui storage box/Qing Dynasty fire column/" Jishan "brick carving/various old rice bucket/Tang Dynasty lion grain barn cover bowl/barn seal, etc., the history of the Grand Canal Fuyi warehouse has more three-dimensional understanding, if it is to expand the vision or walk the baby learning is still appropriate.

There are few people here, but also very quiet, next to the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, the scenery is also good. After visiting the Fuyicang Exhibition Hall, there are several good places nearby: Xiangji Temple, Dadou Road historical and cultural block, Xiaohe Street, Xiaohe Park. Further away, there are several museums: Hangzhou Arts and Crafts Museum, China Umbrella Museum, China Sword and Scissors Museum, China Fan Museum, these four museums are very close, if you have enough time, you can stroll together.
