The number of museums in Tibet has increased, and plateau culture has a place to return

2023-08-31   

Recently, the Ali Museum, the world's highest museum at sea level, opened, and a new member has been added to the museum group in Tibet. The current Tibet museum group includes both comprehensive museums and themed museums, providing a home for the earth's culture scattered throughout the plateau. During the peak tourism season, the Tibet Museum has become a must-have attraction for many tourists, with young people becoming the main force for visitors. Journalists from China News Agency and visiting young people learned that compared to some scenic spots that cost tickets, they believe that visiting museums is more "affordable" and has a greater sense of cultural experience. In July 2022, the Tibet Museum exhibited cultural relics. Zhao Lang, a journalist from China News Agency, photographed the opening of the Tibet Museum in 1999, which took another 5 years to construct. The new museum opened in 2022 and has a collection of 520000 cultural relics, including 18 categories such as archaeological excavations, seal seals, Thangkas, ancient books, statues, and artifacts. After presenting itself with a new look, the Tibet Museum has demonstrated the social function of integrating education and entertainment through a variety of activities. For example, the "Restoration of Ancient Books" experience activity, traditional Tibetan clothing display activity, Tibetan chess experience, and non heritage cultural and creative markets have been carried out. In July 2022, a student touched and experienced simulated cultural relics at the Tibet Museum. In recent years, comprehensive museums in various cities and prefectures of Tibet have successively opened, such as the Shannan Museum and the Shigatse Museum, according to Zhao Lang, a journalist from China News Agency. There is also the Changdu Museum, the prefecture level museum with the largest collection of cultural relics, with over 10000 pieces (sets) of various cultural relics. Among the collections, archaeological achievements add a lot of color to these museums. The twin pottery jars unearthed from the Karuo site have become the treasure of the Tibetan Museum. The Shannan Museum showcases archaeological excavations of Greek style Bacchus silver plates and 20 Sassanian silver coins, as well as gold masks from the Ali Museum. Theme museums are also a highlight of the Tibet Museum Group. The Tibet Yak Museum is the only museum in China that focuses on yaks and yak culture. The Shigatse Stone Carving Art Museum showcases some exquisite stone carving art from the 7th to 19th centuries in Tibet. In addition, there are also the Tibet Million Serf Liberation Memorial Hall, the Tibetan Incense Museum, the Tibet Seize Coin Museum, and the Tibet Wipe Culture Exhibition Hall. In January 2021, Tibet Wipe Culture Exhibition Hall. Zhao Lang, a journalist from China News Agency, photographed these museums as "urban reception halls", providing people with a more convenient way to understand the local history, culture, customs and traditions of Tibet. It is worth noting that visiting museums has also become a part of the social life of young people in Tibet. He Ling, who has been living in Lhasa for many years, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency that she is a museum enthusiast, especially since she has lived in Lhasa for many years. The Tibet Museum is a place where she and her friends often "check in", and every visit brings new discoveries. In recent years, many museums in Tibet have opened, which is surprising. I hope to have the opportunity to "check in" one by one. In Tibet, not only museums, but also some art centers, galleries, and galleries have emerged one after another. Together, as part of the social public cultural service system, they have gradually grown with plateau cities and become a beautiful business card. (New News Agency)
