Features: China has very few specialized art museums. Have you been to the Chinese History Museum in front of Tiananmen Square? If you are not very familiar with those historical facts, how about taking a beautiful tour? The painted pottery basin with a fish face, the colorful bronze wares, the dazzling Han Dynasty artifacts, the elegant Northern Wei sculptures, the calligraphy with dragon-like strokes from the Jin and Tang dynasties, the endless Song and Yuan landscape paintings, and the imagined portraits of famous poets and writers such as Qu Yuan, Tao Yuanming, Li Bai, Du Fu, and Cao Xueqin. Don't they all showcase the soul history of this ancient civilization that you can directly feel?
