I had breakfast at the hotel at 7:30 in the morning on September 18, 2020, and took the D02 bus from the hotel at 8:30 to get off at the East Square of Tangshan Station. Remember not to go to the West Square, because the distance to the station is longer. Enter the station at 9:20, take the K338 train at 9:50 to Cangzhou, arrive at the station at 1:15 pm, walk 500 meters out of the station, and check in at Home Inn Cangzhou Railway Station.
The check-in arrangement was completed, and I went out to eat lunch at a noodle restaurant. At 12:20, I took the No. 16 bus at the bus station to the Cangzhou Museum. There was a small mistake on the way, and it took about 7 or 8 stops. My wife suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to bring a mobile phone. Power supply, her mobile phone must be charged at least once a day, otherwise it is very likely that the power will be cut off and the mobile phone will not be able to take pictures. She immediately wanted to go back to the hotel to pick it up. I firmly opposed it because I had a camera to take pictures. In addition, the museum is relatively remote. It may delay the visit. Generally, museums are forbidden to enter at 4 pm, which will affect our experience. journey. But she insisted on returning, so she couldn't get off the bus on the way, so I rushed to the museum by myself. She just got out of the car, and the car continued to move forward. A passenger next to me pointed to my wife's seat in the front row and motioned to me. I saw that my wife's mobile phone was left on the car. Without cash, without a mobile phone, she cannot pay for the ride. Moreover, she cannot contact me. Without her mobile phone, she will not be able to move a single step. When I got to the next stop, I got off the bus in a hurry and ran all the way back. Fortunately, the stops were not far away. When I arrived at the last stop, she was looking for her mobile phone at the opposite stop. Fortunately, she didn't get on the bus. I complained to her a few words, and the 16 road in the opposite direction happened to come, she got in the car and left, and I went to the museum by myself. After several twists and turns, I arrived at the museum at around 3:20 pm, and I entered the museum smoothly.
Cangzhou New Museum is located on Shanghai Road (west of the Convention and Exhibition Center), Yunhe District, Cangzhou City, Hebei Province, in the new urban area in the west of Cangzhou. The museum is a key project of Hebei provincial-level social welfare undertakings invested and constructed by the Cangzhou Municipal People's Government. It covers an area of 57 acres, with a construction area of 32,275 square meters and an investment of about 347 million yuan.
As of 2014, Cangzhou City Museum has more than 7,000 exhibits. It collects and displays all kinds of cultural relics, specimens and collections unearthed from the Neolithic Age to the Republic of China, as well as the Grand Canal, Bohai Bay, acrobatics, martial arts and various intangible cultural heritage cultural phenomena with regional characteristics. It is a collection of cultural relics It is a regional comprehensive museum integrating collection, display of cultural relics, scientific research, publicity and education, and archaeology of cultural relics.
On September 18, 2018, Cangzhou City Museum was rated as the third batch of national second-level museums.
The new museum has a total height of 24 meters and is divided into a semi-underground floor and one to four floors above ground. The overall layout of the museum consists of 11 exhibition halls on the first to third floors, and 11 exhibition lines are designed. On the first floor, there are science and technology experience hall, calligraphy and painting and arts and crafts two temporary exhibition halls. On the second floor, there are "Canghai State--Cangzhou History and Culture Exhibition", "Coastal Relics--Cangzhou Folk Culture Exhibition", "Cangzhou Historical Celebrities Exhibition" and "Light Crimson Porcelain Charm--Cangzhou Folk Collection Exhibition". On the third floor, there are "Grand Canal North-Hebei Grand Canal Culture Exhibition", "Source of Hundred Operas-Cangzhou Acrobatics Culture Exhibition", "Hometown of Martial Arts-Cangzhou Martial Arts Culture Exhibition" and "Coast of Bohai Sea-Cangzhou Coastal Resource Science Exhibition”.
Cangzhou Museum is built with a novel atmosphere. It is conceivable that the exhibits inside should also be very rich, but I did not expect that Cangzhou Museum was ingenious. During the epidemic, it adopted a different measure from other museums. It is not to limit the number of people, but to limit the number of exhibitors on each floor. The second floor of the museum is closed that week, and that second floor is the main exhibition area of the Cangzhou Museum. Most of the cultural relics are on the second floor. We rushed here, but almost nothing was collected. Helpless, I had to briefly look at the first and third floors. When it was about to end, my wife happened to come over. I heard that I couldn't see the cultural relics, and was very disappointed. If you know this, why rush back to pick up the mobile power supply.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, we left the museum and took the No. 16 bus to get off at Qingfeng Building. We still have time, so we can take a look at the style of this building.
Cangzhou Qingfeng Building is located beside Jiefang Road and the Grand Canal. According to the "Hejian Fuzhi" written by Fan Shen (then Hejian Hukege Shizhong) during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty: "Qingfeng Tower is in the Cangzhou Mansion. It is said that it was built in Jin Yongkang. When I arrived in Cangzhou, I wrote a poem "Qingfenglou": a prosperous place in the Jin Dynasty, and now there is this building. Dusk clouds connect with Haidai, and the bright moon is full of Cangzhou. Returning birds pass by like clouds, and flying stars blow tiles. South of the city is dying, lonely picking lotus Boat."
The existing Qingfeng Building was rebuilt according to ancient records. It was completed in 1992. It is divided into 1 floor underground, 5 floors above ground, and 2, 3, and 4 floors with 12 corner eaves on each floor. It is the only antique building along the Cangzhou section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It is also one of the architectural and cultural landmarks of Cangzhou. It's a pity that the gate of this building is also closed, and I am afraid it is also affected by the epidemic.
Not far ahead is Cangzhou Nanhu Lake. What is the difference between Cangzhou Nanhu Lake and Tangshan Nanhu Lake? After visiting here, I realized that the difference is not so small. Nanhu Lake is located in the urban center on the east side of the canal in Cangzhou City. It is the largest natural water area in Cangzhou City. The lake area is only 13 hectares. There are patches of reeds in the lake, an island, dense trees and flocks of birds. The surrounding lake slopes are protected by masonry, and there is a Yudai Bridge leading to the island in the center of the lake. It only takes 10 minutes to make a small turn around the island. Coming out of the park, the opposite is the small commercial area by the canal in Cangzhou City, where we bought side dishes and beer, and went back to the hotel for dinner.
