Haihunhou Ruins Park丨Meet the Gilded Age of Haihunhou

Traveling through thousands of years, encountering the gilded era of Haihunhou Among the green mountains and clear waters outside Nanchang City, a legendary royal tomb that has been sleeping for two thousand years is slowly awakening. This is the burial place of Liu He, Marquis of Haihun - an unexpected excavation revealed the most luxurious mystery of the Western Han Dynasty. Walking into the Haihunhou Kingdom Ruins Park, the horseshoe gold shines in the sunlight in the glass display case, the bronze goose and fish lamps still sway with the ingenuity of the ancients, and the 100,000 unearthed five-zhu coins seem to be able to hear the roar of the imperial finances. Liu He, the "deposed emperor" who served as emperor for only 27 days, used his wealth to pose a humorous puzzle to future generations: Was he an absurd prodigal? Or is he a tragic aristocrat buried in history books? The cloud patterns on the lacquerware are still flowing, and the cold light of the jade sword has not rusted. You can stand in front of the restored purple-gold chariot and imagine an interrupted imperial procession; or look at the fragments of Confucius' screen and guess what the prince was thinking as he read the scriptures late at night. When the setting sun gilds the copper buttons of the museum, you can hear the sound of chimes coming from underground - that is the Western Han Dynasty that has not been stolen by time, whispering to you. [Food] There is a food court for dining. The prices are moderate for a scenic spot. There are also small restaurants run by villagers around. [Travel] It is recommended to drive yourself. If you cannot drive, you can take the bus. It is okay to take a taxi, but it may be difficult to get a taxi on the return trip. There is a sightseeing bus between the ruins museum and the cemetery. The ticket price is 15 yuan. It is recommended for tourists who are in a hurry or do not want to walk. 【Tour】Opening hours: 9:00-17:00, closing at 16:00. We mainly visited the Haihunhou Ruins Museum and Liu He's Tomb; if you are in a hurry, you can just visit the "Golden Haihunhou" exhibition hall of the museum. [Purchase] Cultural and creative products can be purchased at the museum exit as needed.
