The First City in Northeast China (Liaoyang)

This small city, which is not very prominent, is the true first city in the northeast in history. It has a history of 2300 years of city construction. As early as the Warring States Period, the Yan State established Liaodong County here, which was the earliest city in the northeast. During the Liao and Jin periods, Liaoyang was the eastern capital of the empire. In the Qing Dynasty, this was also the place where Nurhaci built his capital With such a long history, there are naturally many cultural relics and stories. This land witnessed the fierce and helpless eight invasions of Goguryeo during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. As the eastern capital of Liao and Jin and the early capital of Qing, it experienced the prosperity of Khitan and Jurchen. The current Liaoyang Museum was opened in 2009. The exhibition level is acceptable, but the hardware facilities, especially the lighting equipment, are a bit outdated, which means that many precious cultural relics have not received the treatment they deserve, and the viewing effect is greatly reduced Let's talk about the impressive exhibits. The stone model at the entrance of the second floor is very interesting. It is actually a mold for making bronze ware. Because the stone is hard and not easy to process, it was soon replaced by pottery, so there are few handed down; the first picture of Xiangping cloth is the currency cast by Yan State in the capital of Liaodong County, Xiangping, which can be said to be a special symbol of the ancient history of Liaoyang; finally, let's talk about the treasure of the museum ☞ Wang Erli's Seventieth Birthday Screen, in the first year of Jiaqing, on the occasion of Wang Erli's seventieth birthday, it was made by his colleagues in the same dynasty, social celebrities and private friends (it is said that there were also Jiaqing emperors) and other 125 government officials and social celebrities. The theme is celebrating birthdays, the form is nine screens, the screen is 2 meters high, and the total length is 2.88 meters. The wooden frame of the birthday screen is carved with the word "Shou" as the theme, supplemented by symbolic paintings, and the workmanship is extremely meticulous. The whole screen has 126 pieces of calligraphy and painting works, including 34 pieces of calligraphy and painting, and 92 pieces of "Shou" I have to complain about the staff who "guard" the Seventieth Birthday Screen. While shouting at the children who touch the glass of the display cabinet, they focus on guarding the treasure of the museum and kill any demons and ghosts who try to take pictures in the cradle
