Can't get a reservation for the Shaanxi History Museum? No need to rush for the newly opened Qin and Han Dynasty Gallery

As the main venue in China for the International Museum Day on May 18th, the much-anticipated Qin and Han Dynasty Gallery of the Shaanxi History Museum has finally opened! The recently popular 'Morning Court' is in this gallery. As a new gallery of the Shaanxi History Museum, it boasts a majestic appearance combined with high-tech elements. National treasures such as the Empress's Jade Seal, the Gold-Inlaid Tiger Tally, the Gilded Silver Bamboo Joint Bronze Censer, the Gilded Bronze Silkworm, the Gold Monster, and the Lacquered Pig have all been moved to the new gallery! The famous Changxin Palace Lantern has even been borrowed from the Hebei Museum! Here comes the key point! Compared to the old gallery where tickets are hard to come by, the new gallery is not yet well known. So, for now, there's no need to rush! No need to rush! No need to rush! You can even make a reservation at the museum entrance! Currently, the Qin and Han Dynasty Gallery only supports reservations through the 'Shaanxi History Museum' official WeChat account. When making a reservation, just select the Qin and Han Dynasty Gallery in the bottom right corner. 1️⃣ How to get there You can drive yourself as there is a parking lot. As for public transportation, Xi'an Metro Line 14 can take you directly to the Qinpaleis Station, but it's a bit far from the museum, over one kilometer, especially in the summer. The official shuttle bus runs only once an hour, and there are many old men at the metro station offering rides for 3 yuan per person or 5 yuan for two, which is acceptable. 2️⃣ Things to note It is recommended to reserve 2 to 3 hours for your visit. Upon entering, you can store your luggage for free, and audio guides are available for rent at 15 yuan. Currently, live guides are not available. 3️⃣ Specific tips Currently, the following areas are open: the Preface Hall + the First and Second Qin and Han Dynasty Exhibition Halls, the City and Mausoleum Exhibition Hall, the Skill and Beauty Exhibition Hall, and the Temporary Exhibition Hall (10th Anniversary of the Silk Road's Application for World Heritage) plus a 4D cinema.
