Henan - Luoyang Zhou Wangcheng Emperor's Six Museum
Luoyang Zhou Wangcheng Emperor's Six Museum
The ancient system of the emperor's carriage 'driving six horses' seems to be an indisputable issue. However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220 AD), which was the most prosperous in Confucianism, scholars debated whether the Zhou emperor 'drove six horses' or 'drove four horses'.
This academic debate about the number of horses driven by the ancient emperor, which took place in the 2nd century AD, was not really settled until the early 21st century, when the pit of the 'Emperor's Six' chariot and horses from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in Luoyang was unearthed: 'The emperor drives six, the princes drive five, the ministers drive four, the officials three, the scholars two, the common people -'

'Eastern Zhou Luoyang Civilization Exhibition'
The 'Eastern Zhou Luoyang Civilization Exhibition' is divided into three parts: 1 Wangcheng Tracing:
The Eastern Zhou Wangcheng was the capital of 14 kings from Zhou Pingwang's move to Luoyi to Zhou Mourning King and Zhou Yan King, lasting more than 300 years (11 kings from Zhou Jing King to Shen Jing King all lived in Chengzhou City). The struggle for hegemony among the states and the competition among the heroes are the most prominent features of China's history entering the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.
2 Royal Tomb Exploration
From the eastward move of Ping Wang in 770 BC to the extinction of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the 25 generations of Eastern Zhou kings should be buried in Luoyang after their death. Through more than 50 years of archaeological discoveries and literature materials, workers have divided the Eastern Zhou royal tombs into Wangcheng, Chengzhou, and Zhou Mountain, gradually unveiling the mysterious veil of the Eastern Zhou royal tombs.
3 Ritual and Music Civilization
'Music is the harmony of heaven and earth. Ritual is the order of heaven and earth.' The civilization of ritual and music, which is based on order and harmony, was formed and perfected in Zhou, and is an important part of ancient Chinese civilization. The system of ritual and music is the core of Zhou culture, and has had a profound impact on Chinese society and culture for the next 3000 years. The system of ritual and music in the Zhou Dynasty detailed the hierarchical system and different treatments that the emperor, princes, officials, and scholars must follow, involving politics, military, culture, life and other aspects, and is the norm for maintaining the concept of slave hierarchy and consolidating the status of slave owners.
'Chariot and Horse Burial Pit'
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there was a unique system of burying real chariots and horses for practical use, which was an important part of the funeral rites of the aristocratic class.
A small museum, it is still necessary to bring the explanation, or it is meaningless to come out without understanding it. The service of the explanation is very good and very professional. You can learn a lot of knowledge through the explanation.
In the past two days, when the battery car in the city drove, it had been passing the statue of the horse in Zhouwangcheng Square. The online search said that it was a museum. When I passed by in the afternoon, I went in. It is estimated that all the people who came learned this sentence: "Tianzi drives six, Zhuhou drives five, Qing drives four, doctor three, taxi two, and one." Well... Because of the relationship between the location, the museum is very small, 30 yuan is not counter-offer, um...
This is the museum of the original site of the original pit. Although it is small, it is expensive. Other museums do not need tickets. This requires tickets. It is also close to the city. It is not bad to come here and see it. There is also a place inside that is under construction.
A large-scale Chema Keng in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which is protected and displayed at the original site, is supplemented by the exhibition of the general situation of the Wangcheng City in the East, the new discoveries of the archaeology of the Wangling Mausoleum and some of the precious cultural relics of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The special museum of the "Wangcheng, Wangling, and Wangqi" is a special museum. During the holiday, you can take your children to feel the deep and long history
Luoyang is a city with a strong cultural heritage. There are many museums in the city. I am afraid that the six museums that can truly feel and be close to thousands of years of civilization are not the only ones! Underground in Zhou Wangcheng Square, there are many high-rise buildings on all sides, and the historical civilization and modern civilization are perfectly combined underground for thousands of years. The museum is very small, but it is worth seeing. Bring children to increase knowledge.
Luoyang is necessary and should be able to create such a museum community. Tianzi is not big, but the content is thick, there can be a lot of things to say about digging, and it is also suitable for tourists of different ages and knowledge backgrounds to provide different explanation services. Generally speaking. Small and beautiful attractions need rich additional services at a level to better reflect and play the personalized characteristics of attractions. The half-hour explanation service provided in the museum is quite satisfactory, which is not a problem for the narrator. It should be said that this place is worth paying more money to spawn more diversified services from all parties in the market.
The Zhou Dynasty Tianzi Driving Six Museum is worth seeing. Although it can be ended in 20 minutes, the cars and horses excavated underground in the sixth are still worth seeing for themselves. Few people have a good experience, look at it from any angle and take pictures. In addition, the air conditioning is powerful on a hot day, and I don't want to be crowded with Lobo people. The loud shouts of various explanations crowd the resources and others can't look closely and still die.
