History just got a tech-powered upgrade! The Zhijiang Branch of Zhejiang Provincial Museum 🏛️, opened August 29, is already the hotspot for culture vultures in Hangzhou. Spanning 100,000 sq meters (that’s 14 soccer fields! ⚽), it’s packed with everything from 5,000-year-old jade ritual objects to masterpieces like Huang Gongwang’s iconic landscape painting Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains 🖼️.
💡 Pro tip: Don’t miss the star exhibition Ten Thousand Years of Zhejiang, which takes you from Stone Age tools to modern artifacts – like a TikTok timeline come to life! Over 2,000 relics tell the story of a region that’s basically China’s answer to Mesopotamia.
Tech lovers, rejoice 🤖: The museum uses 3D modeling and immersive digital experiences to make ancient pottery designs and folk customs pop off the walls. Even the glass is next-level – low-reflection panes let you snap crystal-clear relic selfies 📸 without glare.
Part of the massive Zhijiang Cultural Center complex (think libraries 📚, literature museums, and非遗 spaces), this new venue proves China’s cultural scene is serving major #MuseumHack vibes. Perfect for your next Hangzhou itinerary!
