Go to Luoyang Museum, let the aesthetics of our ancestors influence you

Before going to Luoyang Museum, I roughly checked what the treasures of the museum are. Actually, I can't remember too much. Every time I go, even if I have done my homework, I may not follow the plan. If I don't do my homework, I might encounter unexpected joy. White jade cup: This craft and color can be mass-produced now, and the quality is good and the price is cheap. But in ancient times, this cutting, this color, tsk tsk, should be a rare treasure. Ceramic Hundred Flower Lamp: From a distance, I thought it was made of metal, cast in a mold. It was only when I looked at the label up close that I realized it was made of ceramic. Clay will dry after a while, I don't know how many people made such complex figures of feathered people, deer, cicadas, etc. together. And ceramics are fragile, it's amazing that it has been preserved intact for almost two thousand years from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the present. Tang Dynasty hairstyle: There is an introduction on the wall, and cultural relics are also on display. I didn't know how the towering bun of the Tang Dynasty was maintained before. Later, I understood when I saw the children dressing up in Hanfu, it turns out that they all need to pad something inside. I think these hairstyles of Tang Dynasty people don't require much hair volume, thin and soft hair is also fine, pad something, insert a hairpin, and the aesthetics are elevated. In Luoyang Museum, I saw the tomb-guarding beast, Shi Wengzhong, Shi Bi (bi currency) Xie, and learned a little bit more about our funeral culture. I didn't expect Shi Wengzhong to be so big! Luoyang Museum small guide: 1, There is a parking lot, there are many parking spaces, but when we arrived at more than nine o'clock, there were already many cars. If you drive by yourself, go early. 2, There are not many explainers, rent early, or occasionally listen to the explanation of the large group. If you bring children and the children can follow the explanation quietly, you can also hire a private explainer. 3, There are beverage and snack vending machines in the museum, the prices are very, very reasonable. Among the museums I have visited, this experience is really a plus. Those who understand will understand. 4, If you are fast, you can finish the tour in about three hours. 5, Make an appointment in advance, this is very important. Swipe your ID at the door.
