Guilin Travel: Unique Red and White Checkered Building, Niche Art Photo Spot

🧱Our trip to Guilin is coming to an end, and we have some time before we leave. On our way back from this city walk, we found a niche photo spot with a unique building. If you like unique architectural styles, you can come here for a visit. It's called the Guangxi Provincial Art Museum. ————————— Name: Guangxi Provincial Art Museum Address: No. 15, Jiefang West Road, Xiufeng District, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Opening: Open to the public only during events (exterior can be photographed) ————————— 🧱It's not easy to get in for a visit. You have to wait for their public events and exhibitions to visit. But just for the beautiful exterior, I think it's worth a visit. 🧱Speaking of exterior design, the red walls and green tiles of the art museum are very distinctive. The overall architectural style is simple and modern, but with a touch of ancient charm. If you look closely at the exterior wall decorations, you can see reliefs of people performing drama, music, and art. The red and white checkered floor tiles in the small garden are simply exquisite and beautiful. 🧱As for the historical significance of the art museum, it's a long story. It was built under the supervision of the famous dramatist Ouyang Yuqian and is one of the earliest art museums in Southwest China, becoming an important cultural landmark in Guilin. The museum preserves a large number of art relics and materials, and also plays a huge role in the development and innovation of drama, art, and music in Guangxi. 🧱Photo Tips: ❶ The best time to take photos is around 4 pm, when the light and shadow effects are beautiful, and the light coming through the wall cracks and iron windows creates a unique effect; ❷ It is recommended to wear Chinese-style or plain clothes, which can create a unique feeling when paired with the red walls; ❸ The exterior red walls, reliefs, and window lattices of the art museum are great backgrounds, and the interior with iron windows and red and white checkered floor tiles are really beautiful. ❹ If you want to visit, be sure to pay attention to the official announcements of events and open visit notices to enter. Otherwise, you can only take photos of the exterior on regular days, but it won't take too long, and it's worth a visit.
