The Son of Heaven's Six-Horse Chariot Museum

➡️Historical records mention the Son of Heaven's six-horse chariot, but the actual object was lost to later generations. Over time, it became a historical mystery, with ongoing debates about whether the Son of Heaven had a four-horse or six-horse chariot, until the discovery of the ruins in Luoyang confirmed the records of the Son of Heaven's six-horse chariot. 🏮The Eastern Zhou Royal City was the capital for 14 kings from King Ping of Zhou's eastward move to Luoyi, through the reigns of King Dao and King Nan, spanning over 300 years (from King Jing to King Shenjing, 11 kings resided in Chengzhou City). The struggle for dominance among the states and the pursuit of power by various heroes marked the most prominent feature of Chinese history entering the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. As the capital of the 'Son of Heaven,' the royal city was the national center of politics, economy, culture, and transportation, enjoying the highest standard among the capitals of the states. The Eastern Zhou Royal City revealed magnificent city walls, towering palaces, neatly arranged granaries, well-planned handicraft workshops, and grand royal mausoleums. 📍Address: No. 226, Zhongzhou Middle Road, Xigong District, Luoyang City, Henan Province 🈺Opening Hours: 9:00-18:00 📱Reservation: Same-day reservation, 30 RMB per person
