As the May Day holiday approaches, the newly renovated China Lantern Museum, located in Zigong, Sichuan province, welcomed visitors with a fresh look on April 25. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the China Lantern Museum's opening.
Previously, the museum had faced problems due to being an old facility, such as partial function, limited collections and monotonous exhibitions. In recent years, the museum has undergone continuous renovations. In 2021, a visitor center was established, followed by the inauguration of the Zigong Lantern Making Art Hall in 2022. From the second half of 2023 to April 2024, the overall renovations and upgrades were completed.
Now, over 75% of the display spaces have been upgraded, boasting high-definition projection capabilities and immersive stereophonic sound. Beside upgrading the museum's technology, visitor routes and exhibition spaces have also seen improvements, with visitor routes having been optimized and the designated space for each themed exhibition hall having been clearly marked. Various presentation methods, such as models, sand tables and projections, have been applied, enriching the content related to the electric lighting era and lantern appreciation customs.
On loan from the Beijing Zhoukoudian Site Museum, the China Lantern Museum's exhibition hall currently features a special showing of fire ash samples collected from localities associated with Peking man. These ash samples are evidence of Peking man's use of fire more than 690,000 years ago. Besides archaeological artifacts, 13 pieces of intangible cultural heritage are also on display, allowing visitors to fully understand the origins, development and making techniques of lanterns.
For the May Day holiday, the China Lantern Museum has organized activities that will allow visitors to do scientific exploration with plants and animals and experience intangible cultural heritage firsthand. Some of these activities include lacquer fan painting, guessing lantern riddles and interactive children painting sessions.
