During the Han and Tang dynasties, the Wei and Du families emerged as distinguished representatives of prominent families from the Guanzhong region, the central part of Shaanxi province, contributing to the development of numerous talented individuals. This exhibition examines the historical changes of these two families, showcasing 130 cultural relics and hundreds of documents. Additionally, it employs multimedia presentations to visitors with an immersive experience of the rise and fall of these ancient families throughout the millennia.
The exhibition features diverse artifacts, such as a Tang Dynasty gilt-engraved copper ruler, sourced from the Chang'an Museum in Xi'an. Additionally, through five major chapters, the exhibition vividly demonstrates the Wei and Du families' brilliant achievements and profound influence in politics, culture, military, art, and other fields.
The exhibition is located on the third floor of the exhibition hall of the Guangzhou Maritime Museum and is open from Tuesday to Sunday, 9 am-5 pm, closed on Mondays.
