GuangDong (广东) Musuem

This was a trip with Tim, Brian, Jasmine, and Galon to the new museum downtown. It has a lot of interesting historical displays, and natural history stuff too. The building is really new and fancy. Afterward we went out to an delicious lunch courtesy of Galon!

In retrospect, I should have gotten more people shots, and fewer museum shots.

This is the outside of the museum building Looking out from the second floor entrance. That porch has grass and trees growing on it. Wood Carving: These are really cool in person, but I suspect the photos are not. So I’ll keep it brief. I guess people actually used to sleep on these ceramic pillows. This is a chinese dragon boat. The dragon boat festival is coming up, and there will be races.

Ancient chinese innovation includes inventing terraces, and this method of irrigating them. I guess this is how school should be. Only four students, and the teacher has a ruler! Reproduction of an ancient world map. Not too far off, except that it’s missing Australia. I’ll probably never understand the CCP’s policy on church’s in the mainland.
