Huqingyu Museum Review

Hu Qingyutang is a pharmaceutical store founded by Hu Xueyan, a red-top merchant in the Qing Dynasty. On Hefang Street, Hangzhou, there is a corridor of medicine shops in all generations, including Baohetang in the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhu Yangxin Plaster Pharmacy in the Ming Dynasty, and the "Six Everyone" in the late Qing Dynasty represented by Hu Qingyutang and Fang Huichuntang. Hu Qingyutang developed more than 400 prescriptions based on the Song Dynasty Royal Pharmacopoeia, and has written a special medical book, "Hu Qingyutang Xueji Marun Complete Collection". Today, in the Jiangnan building of Hu Qingyutang, Hefang Street, the front hall is a retro business hall, and the back courtyard is converted into a Chinese medicine museum. In addition to displaying various medicinal materials, it also shows the process of picking medicinal materials from plant cultivation to making medicine.

Hu Qingyutang Chinese Medicine Museum, just together with Hu Qingyutang, there is an explanation inside, but unfortunately we missed the time, we can only turn around and see by ourselves, and it is also considered to have increased some Chinese medicine knowledge. By the way, you can also visit Jiangnan Garden Residence.

Because I know Hu Xueyan's life, I know that there is such a pharmaceutical bureau on the edge of the West Lake that he built it firsthand! So far, this pharmacy has been extended, the front is a store, the back is changed to a museum, there are many medical workers come!

To say that Hefang Street in Qing Dynasty is a commercial street in Ming and Qing Dynasty style, actually it feels a little far-fetched and lacks of antique flavor. It was Hu Qingyu Hall in Hefang Street who thought it was just an old pharmacy and was shocked when he came in. The scale was quite large. From this we can imagine the momentum of that year. In addition to the pharmacy on the first floor (which is still open normally), there is also a display on the second floor. It introduces the history and development of Hu Qingyutang, which is very worth seeing.

Hangzhou Huqingyutang Museum of Chinese Medicine enjoys the reputation of "Huqingyutang in the south, Tongrentang in the north" Huqingyutang was founded in 13 years (1874) in Qing. Tongzhi. It is located in Dajing Lane, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. In October 1989, Hu Qingyutang Pharmaceutical Factory was established in the factory on the 115th anniversary of its construction. It is now a key cultural relics protection unit of the state. It covers an area of 2,700 square meters and opened in 1991.
