I'd long heard of the Henan Museum, and finally had the opportunity to visit. Stepping inside felt like stepping back in time, into the depths of history.
The artifacts here are dazzling, ranging from Jiahu bone flutes from the Neolithic Age, bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and porcelains from the Tang and Song dynasties. Each piece tells a story from the past. The Lotus and Crane Square Pot particularly impressed me, depicting a crane spreading its wings as if about to break free and soar to freedom. The cloud-patterned bronze ban, with its exquisite openwork craftsmanship, was truly breathtaking.
After visiting the museum, I was deeply impressed by the profoundness and longevity of Chinese culture, and was deeply impressed by the wisdom and creativity of our ancestors. It was truly an unforgettable cultural journey.
