Want to get into the New Year spirit early? Come to the National Art Museum of China! You can always trust the national aesthetic! The first floor is especially photogenic! The traditional New Year vibes are in full swing here! 🌹 The most interesting thing is the fourth picture - the "Pavilion in front of the weeping willow, take care and wait for the spring breeze" written on the winter solstice. Each of these nine characters has nine strokes, and they are written on the winter solstice, one stroke a day, and after 81 days, the nine characters are completed, and the winter solstice is over! The romance and wisdom of our ancestors are very interesting! ❤ The first floor is a New Year exhibition, with all the themes related to the Spring Festival.

We spent almost three hours and only saw four floors, and didn't have time to visit the fifth and sixth floors. 😂 Mainly because... ✔️ It took an hour and a half to make the Fengxiang clay sculpture, as coloring is time-consuming. You have to wait for the paint to dry before applying glue, and it takes more than ten minutes for the glue to dry. ✔️ It also took about 20 minutes to make the Shengzhou bamboo weaving for the cuju. Friends, plan your time well! 🧸 The museum starts clearing at 4:30 pm and closes at 5 pm. In addition, the bottles and jars in the Xinjiang Pavilion are very photogenic! Tips 1️⃣ You can park your car opposite the museum, where there is a large parking lot. 2️⃣ The bamboo weaving experience for cuju costs CNY 68; the Fengxiang clay sculpture costs CNY 178. 3️⃣ You need to make a reservation in advance, as you can't book on the day. There will be a queue before entering, but you can get in quickly. There are many people in the museum.
