Having A Wonderful Journey From This Door
The door in the picture is one of my favourite doors. This door belongs to Xian History Museum. Xian is one of the oldest cities in China, there are so many historical interests and antiquities such as Terracotta warriors. Xian History Museum also is a must-see place when you are travelling to Xian. I am so lucky that have a opportunity to visit this museum in the summer holiday of 2007. This picture was took when I was going to enter the museum. I looked up unconsciously, suddenly I was shock of the roof of the door. As you see in the picture, the roof of the door is very magnificent that like a swallow spread its wings and soar. As I know, it is imitated of Chinese ancient temples. I was attract to this design which can blends the classical and modern features. So I took this picture immediately.
I think this door not only is a simple door, but also is a magical door because it connects modern and ancient times. Once you go through this beautiful door, you will start a wonderful journey. You will meet a lot of people who you are very familiar such as QIN SHI HUANG who is the first emperor of China, and you will see some antiquities which you just can see in the book before such as Tri-color glazed pottery which was produced in Tang Dynasty of 2000 years ago. As my experience, I believe you also will enjoy yourself so much as to forget to leave. In my opinion, the opening of this door means if you are a visitor of the museum, then you will have a opportunity to realize the precious Chinese historical knowledge.
Although not everyone is interested of Chinese history, I still strongly recommend to travel Xian History Museum. And if you can arrive there, do not forget pay an attention to the beautiful door and take a picture of it.
