In 2024, the busyness of museums is evident: during the National Day holiday alone, museums across the country received 74.88 million visitors; On November 28th, the National Museum of China announced that among the 6309187 visitors received, young visitors under the age of 35 accounted for 62.09%. Young people chase after cultural relics and summarize museum reservation guides, cultural and creative purchasing strategies, and annual museum check-in notes on social media platforms. They lamented the delicacy, complexity, and awe of the cultural relics, and planned their museum trip for the next year with satisfaction. In a blink of an eye, the Palace Museum has been open to the public for 100 years since 2025. 100 years ago, on the first day it opened its doors to the public, it welcomed 50000 visitors. In recent years, the Palace Museum has been implementing a daily reservation limited reception measure of 40000 people, which is also considered the best carrying capacity of the Palace Museum as a world heritage site. Nowadays, China has built 6833 museums, displaying sections of thousands of years of civilization at archaeological excavation sites, venues, and even in certain courtyard houses. The time and space of museums have been stretched longer and larger. Many museums have opened their doors at night in response to enthusiastic visitors. Some museums also generously open cultural relic warehouses, where staff introduce stories of cultural relic storage to visitors. The Hunan Museum in the night of the museum indicates that the closed music has sounded and rainstorm has started outside the museum. Jiang Wei, Deputy Director of the Open Management Department, glanced at the time. It was almost 8:30 pm, and many staff members had been working for nearly 12 hours, receiving nearly 20000 spectators, approaching their physical limits. But many visitors are still stuck in the museum - it's not that they don't want to leave, in Changsha, Hunan, the weather in summer is always unpredictable. Why don't you hold an umbrella and give it to the audience A staff member made this suggestion. Many staff members spontaneously held umbrellas and safely escorted the audience onto the car. Afterwards, many viewers cheered for it. Since the nightclubs have been opened, we need to provide excellent service, "Jiang Wei said. Wu Di, Director of the Office of Hunan Museum, introduced that in 2023, Hunan Museum will start to try to extend its opening during summer vacation, National Day, and Mid Autumn Festival holidays. In early 2024, the museum will summarize its experience and formulate a long-term extension plan, extending its opening during winter, summer, and major holidays to "attract more visitors to visit the museum and stimulate night economy and consumption". Behind the opening of nightclubs is the phenomenon of difficulty in obtaining tickets for popular museums after the rise of the museum craze. Multiple museums have implemented measures to address ticket scalping by scalpers. In the summer of 2024, nearly 1.6 million people book 26000 tickets for the National Museum of China every day, with a success rate of only 1.625%. Previously overlooked cultural relics protection units have also become popular. Due to the influence of the game "Black Myth: Wukong", the 169.6 square meter hall in "Xiaoxitian", Xixian County, Shanxi Province, had to be restricted from visitors due to the number of visitors exceeding 10000 during the National Day holiday. Wu Di introduced that from January to October 2024, the Hunan Museum opened for an extended period of 81 days, with over 300000 visitors entering during the extended period. Every day, an additional 5000 people entered the museum at night, with the highest number of visitors aged 18 to 30. Nearly 20000 people enter the museum every day, testing its human, financial, and material resources. The vast majority of visitors have given positive feedback on the delayed opening, "said Jiang Wei. In order to extend the opening, Hunan Museum deploys 251 employees to work overtime every day. Especially during the two months of summer vacation, museum staff are in a non-stop '886' work mode. The so-called "886" refers to working at 8:30 am every day and closing at 8:30 pm, working 6 days a week. Jiang Wei added that the logistics department has specially purchased more consumables and prepared cooling tea for the audience during the summer vacation. Wu Di said that Hunan Museum also provides psychological counseling for employees, mobilizes their enthusiasm, and improves service quality. Even though they have worked in museums for many years, some staff members may not have seen the night at the museum. That's a different atmosphere from the daytime, "Jiang Wei described, with a feeling of opening the door to history. On social media platforms, some netizens describe museum nights as relaxing, adventurous, and heavy. Museum nights can unfold in many ways. The Beijing Museum of Ancient Architecture held the "Light and Shadow Beijing -2024 World Lighting Masters Conference", illuminating the Xiannong Altar at night with a light show. Nightstay museums have also become possible, with some museums designing night stay activities based on their own characteristics and organizing children to come and experience them. Some museums have opened their warehouses. The Chongqing Natural History Museum has opened a 340 square meter warehouse, allowing visitors to see over 1200 specimens up close. The Changsha Museum welcomed a group of high school seniors and showcased the process of registering cultural relics with household registration, taking photos of cultural relics, packaging them, and using technology to restore different types of cultural relics. Let's unleash your creativity. Zhou Shijiang observes the details of the tiger pillow from various angles in the 3D image, while using a paintbrush to draw tiger patterns, tiger eyes, and the surface of the pillow... She wants to use clay to replicate the "yellow ground black color tiger pillow" in the Shanghai Museum - it is a ceramic pillow from the Jin Dynasty, looking like a sleeping tiger with bright eyes. It's like having a little cat at home, sleeping next to it and making a snoring sound When Zhou Shijiang first saw this cultural relic, he thought of real life. This 29 year old girl works in finance in Wenzhou and enjoys visiting museums in her spare time. One day, I had a sudden idea to use clay to replicate museum artifacts. She has a preference for uncommon and colorful ceramic collections, drawing inspiration from documentaries, museum websites, and images provided by netizens. She has created many clay replicas, such as the lotus shaped pipe from the British Museum, the peach shaped teapot from the Shanghai Museum, the blue and white soup pot from the Palace Museum, and the autumn leaf style snuff plate from the Hong Kong Chinese University Cultural Relics Museum. Standing in front of the display cabinet, looking at the cultural relics, she felt that every line was neat and flawless, but when she copied the patterns and looked closely at the pictures, she could find a little bit of handmade traces left by ancient craftsmen's strokes. What is in front of me is not a uniform industrial product on an assembly line, it may have been made by ancient craftsmen under pressure She felt a distant resonance with fellow craftsmen. She took the replica to the museum and took a photo comparing it with the cultural relics. She specially customized a display cabinet in the study and added more than 100 replicas of cultural relics. "I want to bring the museum home," she said. "Compared to buying cultural and creative products, the replicas made by herself are more meaningful. Cultural relics are no longer just pictures in textbooks, as long as they have seen physical objects, many young people start to play with creativity. Some people dress themselves up as "cultural relics", painting patterns of blue and white porcelain on their eyebrows and eyes, and painting the nine colored deer of Dunhuang on their cheeks; Some people have also pasted the Fengguan refrigerator of Empress Mingxiao Duan on various "faces" such as Sanxingdui masks, ceramic cups, cartoon pandas, etc. A 28 year old programmer from Fuzhou spent several thousand yuan to collect refrigerator stickers from museums around the world, arranged them in chronological order. "I lay them on the ground, made several changes back and forth, and it took me a month to finish the exhibition board," he said. You can see the changes in ancient vessels, production techniques, and aesthetic culture Many nights, as he passed by the display board, he couldn't help but exclaim, 'It's so beautiful,' and then he went to the balcony to hang his clothes contentedly. The experience of museums can also be integrated into children's daily games. Since taking her son to the museum, Lin Xin has discovered that her almost 6-year-old son is becoming increasingly interested in history. One day, her son shouted, "I want to be an archaeologist!" So, a group of five or six-year-old children with shovels, buckets, and iron spoons, based on Lin Xin's hand drawn treasure map, vigorously dug up the soil under the big trees and bushes in the community, and unearthed the small dinosaur toys buried by adults in advance. This is a treasure hunt game designed by Lin Xin. "My child has been fond of dinosaurs recently, and I want to solidify his interest. Lin Xin cut her son's experience of going to the museum into a video, and added the historical stories of cultural relics. Her son wants to watch the video every night when he sleeps, and even memorized the dialogue about cultural relics in the video. I have been to many museums, and my son has gradually learned the etiquette of public places: to keep quiet in museums and not to eat food. Once when Lin Xin was getting close to a cultural relic, her son specifically reminded her not to get too close because he noticed that some cleaners would wipe off the marks on the glass display cabinet. Nowadays, more and more teenagers are interested in university museums. Du Pengfei, Executive Deputy Director of Tsinghua University Art Museum, introduced that out of the approximately 700000 visitors who enter the museum each year, about 400000 are primary and secondary school students and young people. He observed that teachers from art education institutions bring brushes, drawing boards, and lesson plans to the museum for classes. "The exhibition 'Sprout: From Qi Baishi to Huang Yongyu' that was recently held has art teachers bringing students every day. Students who come here to study, ranging from kindergarten children to graduate students. The art education general course offered by Tsinghua University to all undergraduate students will be taught on-site at the museum every semester, and teachers and students from Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts will also come to the museum to imitate and teach. Some universities have established university museums based on their teaching characteristics. The Three Gorges Folk Culture Museum of Three Gorges University has collected the "Preliminary Report on the Yangtze River Three Gorges Project" - which was the first systematic and scientific planning of the Three Gorges Project development plan using drawings and literature after the Nationalist Government of Nanjing invited American hydroelectric engineering experts to explore in China in 1944. This report has attracted many students and staff majoring in water conservancy and electric power to visit the museum. An alumnus donated various tax vouchers since the Ming Dynasty to Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics. Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics used these precious tax vouchers to establish the China Tax Voucher Museum, where many classes of the school conducted practical teaching. Li Xinlong from the Archives Management Center of Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics introduced that tax teachers take students to visit museums while teaching about the history of Chinese finance and taxation. Foreign language teachers encourage students to conduct interpretation around tax receipts and tax history. There are also student guides who create short videos to explain the story of tax receipts on various social media platforms. Even international students have come to learn about China's history and culture through the development of the tax system. A group of tax experts once came from Shandong and spent nearly three hours studying the tax receipts in the museum's collection one by one. They praised the museum's collections for their strong professionalism, specialized categories, and large time span. They are all treasures. "" This is a rare item, "Li Xinlong heard the experts discussing it like this. Zhan Wei, the director of the Museum of Jingdezhen Ceramic University, introduced that the professors of Jingdezhen Ceramic University will study ceramic patterns, archaeological dating, historical value, etc. around the collection, and hold academic lectures and forums. Zhan Wei said that in 2024, there will be more middle-aged and young research groups visiting the museum, most of whom are senior business people who have worked for many years. A study group consisting of interior designers and architects aims to find artistic inspiration from the ceramics in their collection and immerse themselves in their design work. Jiangxi Fashion Institute has been building a fashion museum since 2008. Vice director Sun Chengfei recalled that at that time, the chairman of Jiangxi Fashion Institute had a background in tailoring and insisted that private universities should cultivate applied talents and train hands-on abilities by looking at the actual clothing and getting hands-on experience. The chairman has a wish to show students a variety of colorful traditional ethnic costumes. Therefore, several teachers from Jiangxi Fashion Institute went to many provinces to purchase clothing, gradually collecting costumes from 56 ethnic groups and accumulating tens of thousands of clothing collections. During teaching, the teacher takes out the exhibits and places them in front of the students
