Diary Xi'an History Museum

1. Essay on the Provincial History Museum of Xi’an Travel Notes

On the way after we visited the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, my uncle suggested that we should visit the Provincial History Museum tomorrow, where documents from various dynasties are preserved. There are detailed collections of items recorded in the records, and there is also a special exhibition, which is the jewelry cultural relics exhibition of Hejia Village. As soon as we heard about it, we immediately decided to visit the Provincial Museum the next day.

The next afternoon, we happily came to the museum. I saw that the museum itself is ancient, deep and majestic.

Entering the exhibition hall, we first came to the special exhibition hall - Hejia Village Treasures and Cultural Relics Exhibition. The treasures inside are items from the Sui and Tang Dynasties that were discovered in Hejia Village.

The lighting in the exhibition hall is very dim, as if people are immersed in the profound atmosphere of ancient times. When entering the door, there are two very large clay pots. These are the pots where treasures are displayed.

After we walked around them, we started to visit from left to right. There is a belt made of jade as big as mahjong tiles. The jade belt exudes an ivory white color. It lies there quietly, trying to tell us how it followed its ancient master and experienced many things. discovered by modern people.

Next down there are the gold cups and gold hairpins used for drinking at that time, especially the silver pouches with medicinal incense, but what I admire the most are the three small golden dragons. They were placed together with different movements. Each one was only as long as my middle finger and thinner than it, but it was exquisitely made, and the scales on its body seemed to be shaking. It was so lifelike and beautiful that it made me stop for a long time without being able to move.

Next we visited Exhibition Hall No. 1, which displays representative cultural relics of various periods and developments from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty. I also saw the earliest skull ever discovered! Then I slowly visited the ancient cultural relics from various periods.

In my opinion, things at that time were very rough and not as refined as the cultural relics of the Tang Dynasty. As I walked, I saw the representative cultural relics of the Qin Dynasty, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, which are also collected here. I not only took a few more glances, but then reluctantly left the exhibition hall.

Because the museum was only open for three hours this time, we didn’t stay too long and just watched the special exhibition carefully. However, this trip to Xi’an made me deeply fascinated by history, and I decided After returning home, I will read up on Chinese history, which will give me a deeper understanding of our great creations. 2. A 600-word essay on Seven Young People: Visiting the Xi'an History Museum

I heard from the tour guide that when the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses were discovered, a general had a curved sword under his body, and when the archaeologists took out the sword At the same time, the sword flew up again instantly, a cold light flashed, and the sword suddenly became straight. Now the sword has been transferred to the Shaanxi History Museum. When I heard this, I felt itchy and couldn't wait to see the majesty of this sword.

As soon as I entered the museum, a majestic lion stood in front of me. It looked at the oncoming people with its bloody mouth open. I believe that students are no strangers to Journey to the West. Some people’s Journey to the West is forged, but in Chinese history there really was Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty. Tang Monk set out from Chang’an (today’s Xi’an) and passed through Tubo, Dashi, Yiwu... Came to Tianzhu (now India) to obtain the true scriptures.

In ancient times, many countries wanted to make Xi'an, a geomantic treasure, their capital. There are fourteen dynasties including the Western Zhou Dynasty, Qin Dynasty, Eastern Han Dynasty, Western Han Dynasty, Western Jin Dynasty, and Daxia. Their capitals were built in Shaanxi and some imperial mausoleums were also built in Shaanxi! For example: the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang in Lishan Mountain.

Look, what are the people over there doing? I ran over to take a look out of curiosity, wow! There is a pure gold gold bowl with mandarin duck and lotus petal patterns placed in the display cabinet. There are many lotus petals carved on its outer wall, and there is a pair of mandarin ducks in the middle of each petal. It is really lifelike!

A cellar was discovered in a place called Hejia Village in the southern suburbs of Xi'an today. The two urns and one jar that were unearthed were filled with treasures, which were so rare that the whole world was shocked. Archaeologists call it "the treasure of Hejiacun". There are as many as a thousand treasures in this batch. The materials are expensive, including jade, precious stones, gold, silver, glass, etc.; the shape and decoration are elegant, magnificent, royal style, and foreign style; the craftsmanship is exquisite, it can be called the work of heaven, and it shows the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. meteorological.

After visiting the Shaanxi History Museum, I was really filled with emotion. Thousands of years of Qin style and Tang Dynasty have left us so many memories. Let us swim in the long river of history! 3. Essay on visiting the Shaanxi History Museum

After getting off the bus, I saw the Shaanxi History Museum opposite. This is an antique building with the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is orderly, well-proportioned, majestic and solemn, and makes people unconscious. My eyes lit up.

Following the team into the museum, the first thing that caught the eye was a huge stone lion looking up to the sky and roaring, like a burly guard loyally guarding the towering museum. The first thing we want to visit is the special exhibition "Relics of the Tang Dynasty".

According to reports, this batch of precious cultural relics was discovered at an infrastructure construction site in Hejia Village, the southern suburbs of Xi'an. Here, although we only appreciated a small part of the unearthed cultural relics, the exquisiteness of the cultural relics and the exquisite craftsmanship are amazing.

The entire exhibition is divided into two parts.

We first saw the "Jade Run Huaguang" section, which focuses on displaying jade, gemstones and other fine products, many of which are rare treasures at home and abroad.

Among them, what surprised me the most was the treasure of the museum, the agate cup inlaid with gold and animal heads. I frequently find traces of it in books at home, and the crystal clear agate shines with a mysterious charm.

I have always hoped to see it in person one day. I was really flattered to be able to see its "real body" by such a chance.

The second part, "Brilliant Gold and Silver", shows the superb skills of the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty; there are also dozens of silver cakes and silver collars, with chisel inscriptions and ink records carved by people of the Tang Dynasty, for future generations to study. The history of the Tang Dynasty left behind important information. Not only that, there are also many exotic crafts and exotic coins brought by the Silk Road.

It reflects the exchanges and development of the Chinese nation during the Tang Dynasty, and also reflects the openness of the Tang Dynasty. Next, we visited the main museum.

Xi'an has been an imperial capital since ancient times. Thirteen feudal dynasties have established their capitals here in history. The exhibition halls in the museum are also set up in this way, mainly displaying exquisite cultural relics from the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties. It mainly includes painted pottery that reflects the life scenes and artistic pursuits of ancient ancestors, bronzes that reflect the rise of the Western Zhou Dynasty, bronze swords and terracotta warriors that reflect the unification of the world by the Qin Dynasty, as well as cultural relics of the great integration of ethnic groups, religious cultural relics of the eastward spread of Buddhism, and There are gold and silver wares of the Tang Dynasty and three-color tricolor of the Tang Dynasty that reflect the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, which is refreshing.

The Shaanxi History Museum is truly an art palace displaying the history and culture of Shaanxi and ancient Chinese civilization. 4. Please write a diary of about 150 words about my visit to Xi’an. I would like to take my parents, brothers, and me to the History Expo

Travel Diary of Xi’an

I never knew that Xi’an was also an ancient city before, or even I know that the Qin Mausoleum Terracotta Warriors and Horses are in Xi'an. This summer, my parents took my brother and I to Xi'an, and I realized that this is a city with a very profound cultural heritage.

Xi'an, known as Chang'an in ancient times, was the ancient capital of 13 dynasties, including Qin, Tang and other major dynasties, which all established their capitals in Xi'an, leaving many historical sites.

Ancient City Wall

In a big city, busy traffic and high-rise buildings are inevitable, but what shocked me was the ancient city wall. I had only seen it on TV before, but now the real thing was in front of my eyes. I felt an indescribable excitement and a sense of history arose in my heart. The majestic ancient city wall immediately reminded me of ancient war scenes. The four words "magnificent" can appropriately describe my feeling at that time.

Big Wild Goose Pagoda

In the afternoon, we came to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. When I first heard about the "Big Wild Goose Pagoda", I thought it was shaped like a wild goose, hence the name. Little did I know that "Big Wild Goose" is a Buddhist term that means kindness. It is said that the Big Wild Goose Pagoda was built by Xuanzang himself after he returned from India to study Buddhist scriptures in the Tang Dynasty. It was used to store Buddhist scriptures, relics and other objects. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda has seven floors and stands in the Wild Goose Pagoda Square.

Wild Goose Pagoda Square

There is a square around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Walking around the square, you will feel like you are back in the Tang Dynasty. Tang suits, Tang fans, Tang musical instruments, Tang porcelain... ...Antique, although it is an imitation, but for me, a person who has never felt the ancient atmosphere, it is very satisfying. The bronze statues in the square record the social life of the Tang Dynasty, including shadow puppetry, traditional Chinese medicine, Tang Dynasty bands, and Tang Dynasty etiquette. The culture of the Tang Dynasty is rich and profound.

Musical Fountain

Walking out of the world of the Tang Dynasty, we came to the musical fountain in the square, which is said to be "the largest fountain in Asia". The entire system is controlled by a computer, which regulates the height of the fountain according to the rhythm of the music. The music played includes Chinese famous songs and foreign famous songs. One after another, the music slides by, and the fountains rise and fall, high and low, which is very spectacular.

History Museum

The Shaanxi History Museum mainly displays historical cultural relics unearthed in Shaanxi, which are divided into seven parts: prehistory, Zhou, Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, vividly It shows the history of Shaanxi from 1.15 million years ago to 1840 AD. I learned a lot of historical knowledge here.

Bell and Drum Tower

The Bell and Drum Tower was built in the Ming Dynasty. There is a huge bronze bell hanging on the bell tower, which is used to tell the time, hence the name. The Drum Tower is named after a large drum upstairs, which is beaten to tell the time in the evening. The Bell Tower and Drum Tower stand opposite each other, not far apart. The two quaint buildings contrast sharply with the surrounding modern buildings.

*** Street

*** Street is right next to the Bell and Drum Tower. It is a small alley selling souvenirs. Xi'an's local specialties also include souvenirs from various scenic spots, such as terracotta warriors and horses, Tang suits, Tang porcelain, etc. Basically, they are small stalls, similar to street stalls. Each stall has a small shed. Most of the stall owners are ***, wearing turbans on their heads, retaining the habits of ***.

There are many other attractions in Xi'an, including the "Qinling Terracotta Warriors and Horses", one of the eight wonders of the world, the "Huaqing Pool" where Yang Guifei bathed, the Imperial Concubine's Tomb, and the Tang Dynasty Furong Garden.

Visit to Xi’an History Museum

The construction of this museum is related to the late Premier Zhou Enlai.

In 1973, when Premier Zhou came to Xi'an to visit the Forest of Steles Museum, he said: "There are many cultural relics unearthed in Shaanxi. The scale here is too small to accommodate more cultural relics. It should be renovated." Build a larger museum. ”

The new museum was built in 1991 and was designed by Zhang Jinqiu, a female architect. This east-west symmetrical building has the style of the Tang Dynasty, is beautiful and solemn, and is fascinating enough in itself! There are three exhibition rooms in the museum, which display cultural relics from prehistory, Zhou, Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties respectively.

There are two exhibits that moved me very much. One is a Neolithic pottery human head unearthed in Huangling County, dating from 5,000 to 7,000 years ago, and the other is a bronze sculpture from the Western Zhou Dynasty, unearthed from Yangjiacun, Mei County, from the 11th century BC to 771 BC. Make a tripod.

The pottery human head is about seven centimeters in size. It is a very small human head. It has small, round eyes and a mouth that is opened to the maximum extent, and there is a look of terror on its upward-looking face.

I think this human avatar was probably made to express the ancestors’ fear of nature. The pottery human heads are completely expressions of true feelings, without any pretense of modern people.

The tripod is about 80 centimeters high and 70 centimeters in diameter. It is covered with patina and looks heavy. I think maybe this tripod is Gu Gong? The parent uses .

Then, before my eyes appeared the scene of ancient Chinese clan leaders, eating and talking about politics around the cauldron. It took us two and a half hours to visit the museum. Although we felt a little tired, we felt very satisfied because the more than 3,000 pieces of ancient art and the architectural style of the museum left an unforgettable impression on me. 7. Immediately asking for my thoughts on the Xi'an History Museum

The most worth visiting place in Xi'an - my thoughts on the Shaanxi History Museum

Fan Lao Returns to Youth

I want to ask the most worth visiting place in Xi'an Where is the first place to go, I would say "Shaanxi History Museum".

On April 1st, after breakfast snacks (tea cakes and hot steamer cakes), we took the bus to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It was already a very familiar place. One stop away from the west side of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the Shaanxi History Museum. Since my wife has never been to this museum, I made a special trip with her.

There is a long queue in front of the museum. The original admission fee was 35 yuan, but now it is free. People are rushing to visit, which is really a good thing. However, the number of visitors every day is limited, so come early and queue up to get tickets. There is one team for locals and one team for foreigners. They can collect the tickets with their ID cards.

This is undoubtedly a first-class large-scale national museum. The majestic ancient buildings express the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, grand, solemn and extraordinary. The museum covers an area of ??70,000 square meters, with a construction area of ??56,000 square meters. It has many exhibition halls and collects more than 370,000 precious cultural relics unearthed in Shaanxi, with a time span of more than one million years. They are large in quantity, high grade, and There are all types, most of which are national treasures and valuable.

We started from the Pre-Qin Ancient Rhythm Exhibition Hall, and then visited the Han Dynasty Heroes Exhibition Hall, the Tang Dynasty Prosperity Exhibition Hall, the Farewell to the Imperial Capital Exhibition Hall, the Bronze Mirror Special Exhibition Hall, the Ancient Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition Hall, the Silk Road Exhibition Hall, the Yaozhou Porcelain Exhibition Hall, etc. . There are countless national treasures that are dazzling to see, such as the exquisite bronzes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the various pottery figurines of the past dynasties, and the gold and silverware of the Han and Tang dynasties that are unique in the country. The collection of exquisite products is astonishing.

The museum also collects murals from nearly 20 Tang tombs, and adopts the form of a modern mural viewing library preserved off-site to properly protect the original murals.

The total collection area is about 1,000 square meters, ranking first among museums in the country. But this time I was not able to see the "Exhibition of Authentic Tang Tomb Mural Paintings", which left me with some regrets. That’s okay, come again next time!

Xi'an has been an imperial capital since ancient times. Thirteen dynasties including Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang successively established their capitals here. It is rich in above-ground and underground cultural relics. The land of Sanqin with Xi'an as the center is one of the important areas where the Chinese nation lives and reproduces, and the Chinese civilization was born and developed. Its profound cultural accumulation has formed Shaanxi's unique historical and cultural features. The Shaanxi History Museum collects the essence of cultural relics from the Three Qin Dynasty. It is a magnificent palace displaying the history and culture of Shaanxi and ancient Chinese civilization. It is not exaggerated to be known as the "Pearl of the Ancient Capital" and the "Treasure House of China".

This is my second visit to the Shaanxi History Museum. My impression is: if a foreigner has not visited Xi'an, he has not visited China; if a Chinese has not visited Xi'an, it is a major regret in his life; if he has not visited the History Museum in Xi'an, it is a double regret. 8.
