The look is "new" to welcome visitors from all over the world
"Cloud" update, exhibition innovation, cultural and creative innovation...... The major cultural and museum venues welcome visitors from all over the world with new actions, new looks and new atmosphere.
The new Yinxu Museum, which opened in February this year, will usher in the first May Day Golden Week. The exhibition of the new museum focuses on "Shang Civilization", including three basic exhibitions: "Exploring Shang Civilization", "Great Shang Civilization" and "World Shang Civilization", with four special exhibitions such as "Where Does the Long Come From - Special Exhibition of the Long Tomb of Zhuang Dongdi in Yinxu Garden" and "Who Is the Son - Special Exhibition of Oracle Bones in Zhuang Dongdi in Yinxu Garden" and a special immersive digital exhibition. Nearly 4,000 pieces (sets) of cultural relics tell the answer to why Shang civilization is gorgeous. Are you ready to go to this "thousand-year covenant"?
"Cloud" updates. The official website of the Gansu Provincial Museum was newly revised and launched before the festival. The website highlights the cultural attributes of the "Gansu living room" and "cultural window", uses colors, patterns and symbols with regional characteristics, and adds a visualization platform for the collection module to make the cultural relics "within reach".
The exhibition is renewed. Before the festival, the exhibition of "The History of Jijin Casting - Ancient China in Bronze" jointly sponsored by the National Museum of China and Sanxingdui Museum opened, which was the first special exhibition after the opening of the new Sanxingdui Museum; Three new photo exhibitions were launched.
Cultural and creative innovation. Nanjing Museum has launched a number of cute cultural and creative products such as "bronze sacrificial plush toys" and "pig-shaped clay pot plush toys", allowing tourists to take "the museum home". Henan Museum brought archaeological blind boxes, cultural relics restoration masters, ladies and other popular cultural and creative products to Hong Kong, attracting many visitors.
"Unlock" rich activities to make cultural relics "live".
The ancient charm and new style spread in the major cultural and museum venues, and all kinds of rich activities accompanied tourists from all over the world to celebrate May Day.
During the holiday, Beijing launched 12 cultural and museum leisure and vacation strategy routes, such as "Cultural Museum Exploration Tour" and "Cultural Museum Art Tour". In accordance with the model of "micro-vacation", the route connects the museum with the surrounding tourism resources, in order to provide citizens and tourists with an in-depth experience of culture and leisure.
Nowadays, the tide of the country is surging, and the Nanchang Han Dynasty Haiyang Houguo National Archaeological Site Park held a series of activities of "Han Civilization Watching the Sea Dusk". There are more than 1,000 chess scores in the Haiduan Slips, and the site park refers to the "Liubo" chess that was popular from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Han Dynasty, unlocking interesting new ways to play, and the public can participate in the "Han Dynasty Board Game" more than 2,000 years ago. You can also feel the style of Hanyun in the Hanfu parade.
Learn while watching, and study while traveling. Let history transcend time and space, from books into people's lives. Anji Ancient City National Archaeological Site Park will launch a curriculum system for field archaeological excavation, artifact mapping, cultural relics restoration, etc., and customize exclusive research courses at different levels for different students, and fully demonstrate the characteristics of Vietnamese culture;
The public cultural services of the museum are quietly extended, the county-level museums are growing jointly, and the Zhengding Museum, Yixian Museum, Jizhou Museum, Zhuozhou Museum, etc. are all open for free, and a variety of interesting cultural and museum activities are held, so that the majority of tourists can also feel the joy of the festival in the county museum.
All kinds of exhibitions and activities will not close. Liaoning's cultural and museum venues have launched 44 high-quality exhibitions and activities. In the Xinle Ruins Museum, you can see the special exhibition of "Seven Thousand Years at a Glance", the Shenyang Forbidden City, you can enjoy the "Exquisite Sculpture Exhibition in the Collection", the Shenyang Museum, you can enjoy the special exhibition of "One Hundred Years of Zhaoxin", and the Liaoning Provincial Museum, you can participate in the theme activities such as "Non-'copper' Ringing - Chime Pendant Production".
Focus on the needs of the audience to make the service better
The "cultural museum fever" continues to be popular, and the vitality of China's excellent traditional culture bursts out. Last year's "May Day", the number of visitors received by many cultural and museum units hit a new high in the same period in history. How to change from "Internet celebrity" to "long-term popularity" is a problem that many cultural and museum venues think about.
In order to meet the needs of more audiences, museums around the country continue to start from the actual needs this year, scientific regulation and considerate service. Delayed closure, time-sharing ticket release, extension of exhibition period, and performance encores have almost become the "standard" for the vast majority of cultural and museum units.
Sixty-six museums in Jilin Province will extend their opening hours during the "May Day" period, of which 17 museums will be extended until they close after 18:00; the east hall of the Shanghai Museum will be extended to 21:00; the main hall of the Suzhou Museum, the west hall of the Suzhou Museum, and the Suzhou Silk Museum in Jiangsu Province will extend the opening hours to 20:00; and the opening hours of the China Imperial Examination Museum in Nanjing will be extended to 22:30, and it will be temporarily extended to 23:00 if the number of tourists is large.
The Palace Museum has launched measures for rapid reservation and ticket inspection for groups of minors, and the Shaanxi History Museum has changed the usual 3 days (including the day) to 7 days (including the day) in advance, and the May Day holiday tickets for the Mausoleum Museum of the First Qin Emperor have been on sale since April 19.
Since its launch, the Hainan Provincial Museum's "Eternal Romance and Ageless Dongpo - Su Shi Theme Cultural Relics Exhibition" has been deeply loved by the audience. The Hainan Provincial Museum announced before the festival that the exhibition period would be extended to May 5, so that more "Po fans" who admired it could appreciate the feelings of Dongpo's "everything is appreciable" and "poetry and wine are in their prime".
The Hubei Provincial Museum launched the "Brief" History and "Letters" festival temporary exhibition activities during the five-day holiday, and added the chime performance to 5 times a day, and the holographic drama "Meet the King of Chuzhuang" was added to 7 times a day, indicating that the number of performances will be temporarily increased according to the actual needs of the day, so that more visitors can listen to the music through the millennium and immerse themselves in the Han style and Chu Yun.
Times are changing, and people are noisy. The history and culture carried by cultural relics are no longer hidden in the deep boudoir, but close to thousands of households. Behind the current "cultural and museum fever", we see that bronze and jade, pieces of bamboo and wood, and historical classics are enriching the new scenes of the holiday, and museums, archaeological site parks, and historical and cultural monuments are expanding new ways of travel.
