Luoyang Museum: A Millennium at a Glance, a Cross-temporal Dialogue with Cultural Relics
Luoyang Museum was established in 1958 as one of the first batch of national first-class museums. It houses over 20,000 cultural relics, among which more than 5,000 are precious artifacts. The 'Heluo Civilization,' 'Treasure Exhibition,' 'Tang Tri-color Exhibition,' and 'Han and Tang Dynasties Terracotta Exhibition' are some of the must-see galleries. From the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties, it has witnessed the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties and the transition from the Bronze Age to the era of exquisite carvings. The smile of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the white jade cup of Cao Wei, the tri-colored camels, the hand-holding maidservants, and the various eye-catching 'internet-famous' bags, each cultural relic is a story, a cross-millennial dialogue that will not disappoint any time-traveling visitor. It is recommended to visit the galleries on the second floor first and then proceed to the first floor to avoid missing more fascinating stories.
The Longmen Grottoes were carved during the Northern Wei Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and ended in the late Qing Dynasty, spanning over 1,400 years with more than 100,000 stone statues. As the 'pinnacle of Chinese stone carving art' and the foremost of the four major grottoes, the Longmen Grottoes are undoubtedly astonishing. The scenic area is divided into four parts: West Hill Grottoes, East Hill Grottoes, Bai Garden, and Xiangshan. Among them, the West Hill Grottoes are the essence of the tour, which has the most niches, and it is recommended to enter from the northwest visitor center to ensure enough time for a thorough visit. Representative caves include: Binyang Three Caves, Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, Lotus Cave, and Guyang Cave. The Lushena Buddha niche is the essence of the entire grottoes, with the main Buddha Lushena looking down upon all beings. It is said to be carved by Empress Wu Zetian based on her own appearance and is known as the 'most beautiful statue in the East.' Especially the night tour of Longmen, standing on the opposite bank of the Yi River, the West Hill Grottoes light up like stars, giving the feeling of being in the world of gods and Buddhas, which is extremely shocking. Unfortunately, the lighting of the Great Buddha is random, and whether one encounters it or not is entirely up to fate.
Luopu Park is definitely the best place to watch the sunset in Luoyang city. On the banks of the Luo River, near the city museum, in the evening, find a spot to sit and quietly watch the sunset glow like a painting, and you can better appreciate the charm of this city.
洛阳博物馆非常值得一看,讲解旭睿讲解非常专业,用词恰当,语速均匀,生动有趣(这个是真实评论,她虽然喊我们评论了,我也可以不评论),喜欢北魏的前年微笑
大伟老师非常专业,知识储备很足,不是那种背一套上岗走流程的解说,是听完讲解能让人得到不少收获的解说。足足讲完3小时,基本上洛博的精华都能涵盖到。带小朋友或对历史文化有兴趣的朋友强烈推荐。洛博真是家底丰厚,特地提前一个小时进来先转脸圈珍宝馆和唐三彩,外加三小时讲解,也完全逛不完!
导游之前是博物馆工作的,文化修养不一般,对于历史方面的知识非常博学,俩小时让我意犹未尽,学到了非常非常多,真幸福,感谢。
20240414上午:1、洛阳博物馆是洛阳市区内的国家一级博物馆,始于1958年的关林庙(4A),后二次辗转,于2011年迁入此新馆,新馆建筑外形为淡橘色大鼎,寓意“定鼎洛邑”、“鼎立天下”,二层,建筑面积4.2万㎡,馆藏文物2万多件,镇馆之宝为子申父己铜鼎、兽面纹铜方鼎、叔牝方彝、错金银铜鼎、曹魏白玉杯、清代金丝楠木塔、东汉石辟邪等。博物馆分河洛文明馆、石刻馆、唐三彩馆、洛阳珍宝展、宫廷文物馆、王绣牡丹艺术展、华夏衣冠系列展(临时展)、洛阳出土龙文物特展(临时展)8部分。①地址:河南省洛阳市洛龙区聂泰路与文博路路口②交通:公交直达,开车很好停③旺季:无④用时:3小时 ⑤票价:免费,周一闭馆(4月牡丹花会期间周一不闭馆)⑥注意事项:4月是洛阳旅游旺季,必须提前预约,现场预约大概率预约不上2、河洛文明馆位于一层,展示了洛阳1500多年来作为13个朝代(夏、商、西周、东周、东汉、曹魏、西晋、北魏、隋、唐、后梁、后唐、后晋)古都的历史沿革,以每个朝代为脉络来展示那个时期的文物。3、石刻馆位于一层,展示了石刻类文物,分石刻造像、碑碣墓志2部分,展示有较多的大型石像文物。4、唐三彩馆位于二层,展示介绍了盛唐艺术的标志-唐三彩,分惊世发现、人文风采、丝路印记、精神家园、流彩天工5个单元。5、洛阳珍宝馆位于二层,挑选了洛阳全市十几万文物中有代表性的珍品,以青铜器居多,印象较深的中华第一龙、母鼓方罍(花纹让人惊叹。第二个字“鼓”下还有个“女”字,生僻字输入法里没有)。6、宫廷文物馆位于二层,展示了原属北京故宫(5A)慈宁宫大佛堂内清代宫廷文物,1973年经周总理批示调拨到洛阳博物馆收藏,分屏风、家具、佛具3大类。7、王绣牡丹艺术展位于二层,馆内展示了牡丹新画派创始人、洛阳美协主席王绣的牡丹绘画作品,分根植汉唐/邂逅牡丹、国色天香/盛世绣色、花开四海/美美与共3个单元。8、华夏衣冠系列展位于二层,需另买票40元,内部展示了唐代和梳妆,分花样年华/百美竞呈、服章之美/礼仪之大2个单元。展览以现代仿制品为主,互动性较强,但相较40元的票价性价比一般。9、洛阳出土龙文物特展位于二层,展示了洛阳地区与龙相关的文物,面积不大。2024年是甲辰龙年,全国很多博物馆都有这种形式的临时展。10、至此游览结束用时2小时。
洛阳作为十三朝古都,博物馆非常值得去。最好预留出3个小时的时间,馆非常大。有免费人工讲解,我们租的VR讲解,说实话有点鸡肋,使用起来很不方便,还容易眼晕。缺点就是馆里人太多了,非常吵。需要提前预约,否则没有合适时间的票。
