We visited the life and Production session first. It started at Neolithic China 中国新石器时代, about 10,000 years ago. At that time, there was no color to paint with. How did they make the tombs so pretty? They used shells to outline pictures!

The bronze section was also pretty good. The olden time has sculptures that modern people can't do. Mainly they are wine vessels. They might have liked music because of the ancient bells. They had a smaller version of the terracotta army from Xi'an. There were also protected armors on display.
Don't you think that was one impressive museum? No wonder it's so famous!
