Travelogue of the Xingyao Museum, China The treasure of the homeland

On February 14, just in Neiqiu County, I ran to the landmark building "Three Bowls". There happens to be a free policy of preferential treatment card for veterans, and after showing the certificate, enter the visit.

I've been here many times before, but this is the first time I've been there.

Last year, when I was in Beijing and went to the National Museum, in the "Ancient China" exhibition, in the timeline of the Tang Dynasty, I found white porcelain unearthed in the inner mound of Xingtai, Hebei Province, which was extremely exciting, and there was a sense of intimacy of "meeting old acquaintances in other places". This time here, it's a ** thing.

Xingyao white porcelain is one of the ancient Chinese porcelain, which is produced in Neiqiu County and Lincheng County in Xingtai, Hebei Province. It is the earliest white porcelain kiln site in China, which was created in the late Northern Dynasties, and after the rapid development of the Sui Dynasty, it reached its peak stage in the Tang Dynasty and declined in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties.

The emergence of white porcelain in Xingyao broke the situation that celadon dominated the world since the Shang Dynasty, forming a pattern in which celadon represented by Cixi Yue kiln in Zhejiang Province in the south and white porcelain represented by Xingyao kiln in Neiqiu, Hebei Province in the north went hand in hand, forming a porcelain production pattern of "green in the south and white in the north". This kind of white porcelain products have the characteristics of white and delicate fetal quality, regular shape and simple decoration, and are deeply loved by people at that time.

The firing technology and craftsmanship level of Xingyao white porcelain were in a leading position at that time, and it was one of the important milestones in the history of Chinese ceramics. At the same time, the emergence of Xingyao white porcelain also provided an important reference for later porcelain production, and had a profound impact on the development of China's ceramic industry.

Today, the Xingyao site has been included in the fourth batch of national key cultural relics protection units, and has become one of the important sites in the history of Chinese ceramics.

At the same time, there are also China Xingyao Museum, Xing Porcelain Culture Experience Hall, Xing Kiln Ruins Museum, etc., in Neiqiu County, for tourists to visit and understand the history and culture of Xingyao white porcelain.

I really didn't expect that our hometown, Neiqiu County, still has such a profound white porcelain culture.

A miracle doctor Bian Que (our village), plus Xingyao white porcelain, these two trump cards in hand, why worry about our hometown is underdeveloped?

It's time to take off, continue to work hard and forge ahead
