About this place

     As China is one of the earliest birthplaces of human civilization, Chinese characters are some of the most ancient characters in the world. That's the reason why China built its first Museum of Chinese Characters in Anyang City.

    With the theme of Chinese characters, this museum aims to protect China's traditional cultural heritage and make enough room for protection and cultural research of ancient Chinese civilization.

    You can see a huge Chinese character "字" of inscription on an oracle bone in front of the square, which was discovered in the Shang Dynasty. Divided into four floors, the first and the second floor mainly show the development of Chinese characters displayed with relics. Furthermore, the main museum seems grand and like a golden imperial palace under the lights at night.
