Liangzhu Museum — Attraction in Hangzhou City

The Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City reveals an early regional state with rice-cultivating agriculture as its economic base, and social differentiation and a unified belief system, which existed in the Late Neolithic period in China. With a series of sites, including the City Site built during ca. 3300-2300 BCE, the Peripheral Water Conservancy System with complex functions and socially-graded cemeteries (including an altar), and the excavated objects represented by series of jade artefacts symbolizing the belief system, as well as its early age, the property represents the remarkable contributions made by the Yangtze River Basin to the origins of Chinese civilization. In addition, the pattern and functional zoning of the capital, together with the characteristics of the settlements of the Liangzhu culture and of the Outer City with the terraces, support strongly the value of...

良渚博物院，收藏和展示良渚文化和良渚遺址的發現和成果。展品精彩，資料詳盡。深入淺出給參觀者對良渚文化一個全面的認識。三個展館從外而內為參觀者展示5000年前新石器時代後期出現在長江下游太湖地區良渚先民創建出國家規模的高度文明。第一展館開宗明義說明良渚文化的時地，說明當時太湖地區生態環境，先民生活面貌、生產水平。住屋、養豖，捕魚、種水稻，紡織、造玉、制陶、木器漆器、原始文字。提供幅幅先民清晰生活情境。資料詳細有趣味，如良渚文化位於神奇的北緯30度，當時養飼的馴化豬說明，石鐮左撇子現象，新石器時代的木屐，頭蓋骨容器等等。第二展館是良渚古城的解構。古城分宮殿區，內城和外城。三重格局與後世的宮城、皇城和廓城相似。古城選址充分考慮山地資源、水利、農業、交通等因素。古城建於人工地台上，古城有水道、城牆、城河。宮殿區西部是王陵。古城系統地規劃組織，有水井、倉儲區、作坊區等。古城西北建設大型水利系統，由谷口高壩、平原低壩、山前長堤組成，發揮堙洪、儲水、灌溉作用。是中國最早大型水利工程。第三展館展館介詔良渚的玉器文明。良渚古國政教合人。玉器是禮制、權力和信仰的物質載體。展館展示良渚精美玉琮、玉璧和玉鉞。玉琮為祭器，蘊涵圓地方的觀念。玉鉞為軍事權力象徵；"王"和"父"字源字跟“戉"(鉞初文)有密切的關係。良渚文化的神徽圖案也很有趣。而神徽的頭載羽冠的形象，另人聯想良渚統治階層一如印第安酋長載羽冠。 良渚博物院在美麗洲公園內。免費參觀。附近有良渚文化村。博物院西約5公里是良渚古城遺址公園。博物院前有公交車站前往。2019年良渚古城遺址成功列入世遺名錄。遺址公園參觀須購票。公...
