Gansu Provincial Museum, see the national treasure Bronze Galloping Horse disco dance

🏛️National treasure disco! Experience 3,000 years of art history with the Bronze Galloping Horse and Flying Horse of Gansu!

Top star of Gansu Museum! The Bronze Galloping Horse is a legend on the spot! 🐎

📍Address: No. 3 Xijin West Road, Qilihe District, Lanzhou City
⏰Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00-17:00 (closed on Monday)

1️⃣ Must-visit: Second floor Treasure Hall
The Silk Road exhibition hall is full of highlights! The Flying Horse of Gansu is displayed 360° with no blind spots. Remember, the bird it’s stepping on is actually a dragon sparrow (time to show off some knowledge)✨

2️⃣ Eastern Han Medical Bamboo Slips Area
The medical records written by Han dynasty people are hardcore! There are prescriptions like "drink three sheng of milk" on the bamboo slips, proving ancient workers really cared about health 💊

📸 Two top photo spots:
① Tilted shot in front of the Bronze Chariot and Horse Array (makes your legs look 2.8 meters long)
② Glass reflection shot of the Flying Horse’s shadow (goes viral on social media)

🍜 Cultural ice pops are selling like crazy!
Matcha-flavored Bronze Galloping Horse popsicles are amazing, 15 yuan each, and you can even get the same packaging paper as the artifact (great photo prop +1)

💡 Insider tip:
Free guided tours at 3 PM! The frog-patterned pottery in the Painted Pottery Hall is so cute it’ll make you stomp your feet. Remember to bring a jacket (the air conditioning is strong)
