Shanwei Museum
Even the locals in Shanwei don’t know that there are museums in fourth-tier cities such as Shanwei. In fact, there has been a museum for several years. It is estimated that this is related to the location of the exhibition hall, as it is a prefecture-level city museum hidden in an alley.
【Exhibition Halls】: Currently only 3 are open
Left side of the first floor (Shanwei Coastal Archaeological Achievements Exhibition)
The exhibition displays archaeological cultural sites from the middle and late Neolithic period to the Ming and Qing dynasties 7,000-6,000 years ago, gold, porcelain, jade, bronze and other cultural relics, as well as models and site photos and other information
Right side of the first floor (Shanwei Traditional Crafts Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition)
Jiazi shell carvings, Jiesheng clay sculptures, Piyang ceramics, Lufeng metal carvings, gold-lacquered wood carvings, facial makeup from plays, Jieshi straw paintings, etc. The most eye-catching is the exhibition of various tigers and lions in Hailufeng🦁The national intangible cultural heritage "Da'an Rolling Golden Dragon" and the king of Hailufeng lions "Gaizi Lion"
On the right side of the second floor (currently a conch and seashell exhibition)
Very eye-opening. It was the first time in my life that I saw such complete shells and conch shells, in various shapes, colors, and sizes. They were so strange and the underwater world was quite shocking!
No reservation is required, just go there and register your personal information at the door, locals are also welcome. If you are a group and there are too many people, you will have to make an appointment with the museum.
If you want to learn more, you can stay in it all day, about 40 minutes to 1 hour.
The two exhibition halls on the first floor are basically fixed, while the exhibition theme on the second floor will be changed. There used to be historical exhibitions of red revolutionary culture. There were also exhibitions of Buddha statues. Now there are also exhibitions of conch shells and seashells.
Public transport cannot enter. The road is too small.
