Luoyang Sui and Tang Grand Canal Museum

Located at the intersection of the Luo River and the Chan River in Luoyang City, the heart of the Grand Canal from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the museum's design concept is 'Canal Origin·Sui-Tang Charm·Heluo Skill', extracting the arch elements of bridges over the canal as the basic structure, with arches used almost everywhere from the roof to the window lattices. The Grand Canal of China is the longest-lasting, largest-scale, and most influential waterway transportation system in the world, an outstanding example of the ancient Chinese people's extraordinary wisdom and creativity, and the most important technological achievement of Eastern civilization before the Industrial Revolution. The museum has three floors of space, with the first and second floors being the permanent exhibition 'Magnificent National Fate - The Culture of the Grand Canal from the Sui and Tang Dynasties', and the third floor being the interactive experience exhibition 'A Journey of Grain Transportation'. 🚢 The 'Magnificent National Fate' exhibition hall is a giant relief mural wall that displays the full view of the Grand Canal from the Sui and Tang Dynasties. In the year 605, Emperor Yang of Sui ordered the excavation of the Tongji Canal, which took 5 years to complete, creating a grand canal that centered around Luoyang, stretching from Yuhang in the south to Zhuo County in the north, with a total length of over 2700 kilometers. 📌 Museum's Treasure 🔍 Canal No.1 Ancient Sunken Ship: In September 2013, this 20-meter-long, over 3-meter-wide Ming-Qing dynasty sunken ship was discovered on the beach north of the Luo River and was named 'Luoyang Canal No.1'.
