I rarely use the word 'stunning' to describe a place

Flying over a thousand kilometers to come here just for a conversation that transcends time and space Dayuanxiang Museum A museum built inside an abandoned factory, it is the Ba-Yu ancient architecture museum of China's Z University, known as the 'Dunhuang on wood'! The entire museum was established from the personal collection of a collector over 20 years! The collection inside is dazzling, with each piece being a masterpiece!! It includes over 5,000 family instruction wood carving plaques, more than 2,000 Buddha statues, thousands of window lattices, etc. The collection could restore hundreds of ancient mansions and courtyards, also known as 'Chongqing Ancestral House'! This museum presents itself with red bricks and plain tiles, different from other museums' glass showcases, here there are only simple and crude displays and stacking!!! The museum has a total of 8 exhibition halls, covering an area of 53 acres. The old site was originally the Tianfu Bowl Factory built during the Xianfeng era. It now houses tens of thousands of Ming and Qing dynasty wood carvings, as well as various ancient doors, windows, furniture, etc. The old buildings are covered with green moss, and the air is filled with the woody scent of ancient houses, full of traces of the years A folk museum where you can get close to the cultural relics, located in the village of Bishan, with three large halls, several small halls, the first hall you enter is the door plank and plaque exhibition hall with a faint scent of sandalwood The most classic Buddha statue exhibition hall has collected more than 500 Buddha statues from various households and temples. It is truly stunning Dayuanxiang Museum Chongqing Bishan District Longjiang Xinshi Village, Society 5, 50 RMB/person 9:00-17:00 Check-in suggestion The location is quite remote, it's a 1h drive from Chongqing city center, self-driving or carpooling is recommended It takes about 3h to slowly walk through the entire museum, and it's definitely worth the ticket price. You can have a meal at the museum at noon, with a mix of meat and vegetarian options, 20 RMB/person, and there's also a milk tea shop
