Take you to see: Study tour to Shangqiu, an ancient city in the Central Plains (1) - Shangqiu Museum

When traveling to a city, it is best to go to the local museum first to understand the ins and outs of the place, and then choose some places to visit specifically. The ancient city of Shangqiu is more famous than the Shangqiu Museum, but the latter is more important.

We spent about three hours visiting the museum. We went a little late yesterday afternoon and only visited for an hour before getting off work. In the end, the security guards surrounded us. At first, I wondered if they were worried about me stealing their belongings, but in the end they couldn't help it anymore and said they were off duty. They followed us for more than ten minutes one after another, and the scene at the end was spectacular. There are a dozen staff members who should take photos as souvenirs.

This morning from 9:30 to 11:30. Come out satisfied.

A very ancient place

I found a very interesting evolution process of bronze mirrors inside. When the Han Dynasty appeared, there were various patterns on the back, but the style was relatively simple. By the Tang Dynasty, there were more complex designs such as lace and exquisite carvings. In Song Dynasty, bronze mirrors began to have handles. I forgot to take pictures of Tang Dynasty.

The culture of the Han Dynasty is very interesting. There are actually pottery pig pens and toilets. My son and I have been studying for a long time how humans used the toilet at that time. The problem is that the Han people actually appreciate this kind of Lhasa as art, which shows their thirst for knowledge

According to current research, Shangqiu is also the birthplace of "commerce".

The regional environment of the ancient city of Shangqiu is very different from today. In history, the entire ancient city was destroyed.

It seems that the ancient city is quite prosperous, round on the outside and square on the inside. It is said that this design is quite powerful and can resist floods.

Some items from the tomb of the Han Dynasty in Mangdang Mountain are also displayed here, such as jade clothes with gold threads. During the Warring States Period, the city gates of the Song Dynasty were reduced in scale.

From left to right: Mencius, Zhuangzi, Laozi, Confucius. I asked my son which one of the characters he liked best, and he said that one (Zhuangzi). Asked why, he said, he had a smile on his face and I liked his hat. The others are very serious. Children have extraordinary sensibilities.

Not just anyone can leave the ancient inn. Officers and soldiers need "fire cards", and businessmen need "postal symbols", which means they must have a pass.

There is no one around, so the big place is used as a runway. In fact, just this morning, a group of kids from a grade came and left with a bang, you know. So sorry for them.

The museum has many pictures that have not been uploaded here. I still strongly recommend friends who study abroad to go and see it in person.
