Food culture is an integral part of traditional Chinese culture. The National Museum of China recently launched the "Exhibition of Ancient Chinese Food Culture", which selects more than 240 pieces (sets) of cultural relics to systematically explain the development and changes and cultural connotations of ancient Chinese food.
The exhibition is divided into five units: "Eating from The Eight Directions", "Tea Rhyme and Wine Aroma", "Beautiful Utensils", "Change in Dingzhong" and "Lishi Diet", starting from different angles such as ingredients, utensils, techniques, etiquette, etc., comprehensively presenting the historical changes of ancient Chinese food culture, and showing the daily life of ancient working people full of fireworks.
This exhibition has a number of interactive projects, through the experiential, hands-on perception of the content and exhibition form design, to guide the audience to feel the profundity of ancient Chinese food culture.
