Zhangjiakou's new landmark, the Zhangyuan Great Earth

The museum that opened last year is very close to the municipal government and not far from the train station. The venue is large, with the main exhibition halls concentrated on the second and third floors, and the highlights are in the 'Zhangjiakou Ancient History Special Exhibition' on the second floor. For a municipal-level museum, having this scale and a relatively rich collection of exhibits is already quite good Complaints need to be made about the museum entrance signage, which is really not obvious, and it is not shown on Baidu Maps either; the first floor is the planning hall. After circling the first floor and not finding the museum entrance, it turns out to be underground, and the signage for the library, which is also underground, is clearer In terms of exhibits, although there are none that are particularly famous, there are still some that are eye-catching. For example, the gold tiger ornament from the Spring and Autumn period in the first picture, with its simple and lively lines; the spherical vessel in picture 2, with its unique shape and complex patterns; the Han dynasty horse-shaped ornament in picture 3, which is small and exquisite, smooth and full; the bronze sword in picture 4, which may look a bit unremarkable, but the label indicates it was transferred from a ☞ scrap recycling station, revealing its rough history Besides, porcelain and jade carvings like those in pictures 5-7 are also worth a look, especially the Eastern Kiln celadon carved peony pattern ewer from the Song dynasty in picture 5, with its sharp blade, three-dimensional and natural pattern, delicate body, and lustrous sheen, a rare masterpiece of the Song dynasty's Eastern Kiln Overall, it's good, with convenient transportation and complete facilities, making it an excellent choice for understanding local history
