During the winter vacation, I took my children to visit the Imperial Examination Museum of China. I made an appointment for a lecturer, which is 100 yuan. The lecturer introduced in detail the "imperial examination system" in ancient China. Imperial Examination is a kind of official selection system in China's long feudal period. It began in the first year of Sui Dynasty and ended in the 31st year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty. It lasted for 1300 years in Chinese history. For thousands of years, the imperial examinations linked reading and being an official through examinations, through fair competition, and finally took achievement as the sole criterion for admission. Therefore, it has the reputation of "the system of publicity" and has been praised as "China's fifth largest invention". Walking into the reception hall, four groups of dynamic pictures "village children's school disturbance" "gongyuan to take an examination" "Nushe Baishi" "Yueyue Longmen" show us four important stages in the life of ancient students. Coming to the underground museum on the fourth floor, we visited the five exhibition areas "Seeking the Virtue for the Country" "Fish-dragon Change" "Jinbang Title" "Jinling Fair Tales" and "Long-standing History" to understand in detail the far-reaching impact of the imperial examination system on individuals, the country and the world. Out of the underground museum, to the ground, the ink pool in the center of the museum is like a mirror, reflecting the surrounding scenery in the meantime, with the implication of "learning from history". Finally, we came to the hut on both sides of the Mochi Pool and experienced the narrow hut of the imperial examination candidates at that time. We realized that the inheritance of civilization came from arduous struggle in ancient times.

    It is very suitable for taking children to see the appearance of the previous imperial examinations. Everything is good. Only reading is high. Children especially like the atmosphere inside. It will have a great feeling for children. It is worth visiting.

    There are many layers inside. It is worth a place to understand in depth why Chinese people must take the test for fame and fame. The tradition of rising to wealth and Guangzong Yaozu for thousands of years is opportunity and lock.

    It is worth a look. Note that it is divided into the southern half of the area and the northern half of the area. A QR code for buying tickets can pass all of them. The exhibits in the museum are rich and the content is huge. There is a small movie explanation version, played on the whole point, the content is not long, you can watch it in more than ten minutes, and the viewing effect is very good. Finally, after seeing Mingyuan Building, you can also see the real residual house. The exit is a big shopping mall, hidden in the Yuhuashi Museum. There are a lot of cultural and creative products, that is, the price is small. In short, it is worth a look.

    After the epidemic, I finally could travel. I came to Nanjing, where I was thinking of it. At night, the Qinhuai River was crowded. We hid in the Jiangnan Gongyuan. There were a lot of people in the place where the tickets were collected. I saw a lot of introductions to the imperial examinations. The Gongyuan was large in scale and could not be visited in an hour!

    It is still a museum worth visiting. It is very large and it just avoids the large number of people in the Confucius Temple during the Chinese New Year. There are a lot of things in the Chinese Imperial Examination Museum, and there are very few things to see in the Jiangnan Gongyuan opposite.

    A ticket is universal in the South Hall and the North Hall, and it still takes a lot of time to see it on both sides. I just met a volunteer obligation to explain, and I carefully listened to the founding and development of the imperial examinations and their abolition. In the afternoon, I rushed to the Yunnan Museum, and some content was not carefully read, and the time was still less reserved.
