A Brief Note on Sichuan Museum
The Sichuan Museum was established in 1941, with its predecessor tracing back to the West China Union Museum founded in 1914. It was later renamed as Sichuan Museum, West Sichuan People's Museum, Sichuan Provincial Museum, and other names.
In 2009, the new Sichuan Provincial Museum was completed and renamed as Sichuan Museum, which is open to the public for free. The new museum is located in the Huanhua Creek Historical and Cultural Scenic Area in Chengdu, adjacent to Du Fu Thatched Cottage, with a main building area of 32,026 square meters and an exhibition hall area of 9,715.9 square meters. It is the largest cultural benefit project in Sichuan Province during the 'Eleventh Five-Year Plan' period.
The Sichuan Museum currently has permanent exhibitions such as 'Ancient Sichuan·Prehistoric Period', 'Ancient Sichuan·Pre-Qin Period', 'Ancient Sichuan·Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms Period', 'Ancient Sichuan·Jin to Tang and Five Dynasties Period', as well as art history special exhibitions such as ethnic cultural relics, arts and crafts, Han Dynasty pottery and stone art, and there are 4 temporary exhibition halls. The museum has more than 350,000 collections, including more than 70,000 precious cultural relics.
What is puzzling is that the large museum does not have an 'Ancient Sichuan·Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties' exhibition hall, and it is unknown why.
On December 7, 2012, the Sichuan Museum was rated as a national first-class museum.
The museum has two floors, most of which are ancient cultural relics in Sichuan, and can be visited in two hours. There is a special exhibition hall on the first floor, which exhibits a work from a Russian painter and is worth watching.
Sichuan Museum Spring Festival special exhibition dragon travels the world, the exhibition period is January 23 to May 19. Resigned from the old jade rabbit to carry the reputation back to Tianyu, welcome the new spring Jinlong with the blessing of the world. Dragon, since ancient times, has been the symbol of the Chinese nation. Chinese people take dragon as their ancestors, but dragon is the respect. As a mythological and legendary god animal, dragons are mighty, go to the sky into the water, Xingyun rain, with the mysterious, just, wisdom, noble image rooted in the hearts of every Chinese, become the incarnation of Weiyi Tongtian, Zexu Kyuzhou. "There is a dragon in the far east, its name is called China" The image of the dragon is like the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, a symbol, an emotion, a blood-connected emotion, and a spiritual totem of the Chinese people around the world. It fully reflects the spirit of continuity, innovation, unity, inclusiveness and peace, and shows the unique charm of Chinese civilization. In 2024, on the occasion of the arrival of the Year of the Dragon in the Chinese traditional zodiac, we launched a special exhibition of the New Year of the Dragon in China. I wish all the audience friends in the new year strong Huailong horse spirit, great show Kunpeng feathers!
The teacher has a rich knowledge reserve, but there are too many people encountering the Spring Festival. We are in the morning. The guests who have the afternoon session constantly call the teacher to ask this and that, resulting in a good explanation that is often interrupted. I hope to accompany a logistics teacher to ensure that the teacher can not be beaten. Disturbing, I feel that the explanation teacher is also super helpless 😮💨
Teacher Du explained very interesting. Highly recommend other guests. The history of Sichuan is in depth, it is very interesting, not boring. Next time I will ask Mr. Du to explain
The ancient Sichuan feeling is mostly the exhibition of coffin plates. Many of the essence cultural relics are either in the National Expo, Shaanxi Expo or in the Sands Museum or Samsung Dui. Chuanbo can be used as a supplement, but Chuanbo's temporary exhibition of Lotus Hall and Cat Painting Exhibition is quite distinctive, and has ornamental value compared to ancient Sichuan.
Sichuan Museum "Ancient Sichuan-Qin and Han Three Kingdoms Period Exhibition" in 316 BC, Qin conquered Bayan, ruled in Bayan area for 110 years, Qin has a large land and a large backside of rich economy, laying a solid foundation for Qin Shihuang to unify the six countries. Qin's policy of rule in Bayan region is flexible and far-reaching, and the construction of water conservancy has achieved great results. The Rebel Army of Qin at the end of Qin Dynasty was also up. In September of Qin II (209 BC), Liu Bang started his army and was named King of Han. Bayan made a major contribution to the establishment of the Han Dynasty and the stable development of the early Han Dynasty. In the process of developing "Southwest Yi" by the Emperor of Han Wu, Bayan area has become an important role in stabilizing the southwest. The strong development of the East Han Hao, the "State of Tianfu" with Chengdu Plain as the core, has been basically built, which is recognized in the future. At this stage, the crafts industry, education and literature represented by the Bayu area, Jingyan, lacquerware, etc., are at the leading level in the country. The Bohan regime in the three countries took Bayu area as the core and occupied an important position in China's history and culture. The Qin and Han periods are a shining era in the history of China, and the Bayan area is constantly prosperous and developing at this stage. The rich Tianfu and comfortable life have laid down the optimistic life attitude of the Bayan people at this stage and continued to this day.
