Henan Radio and Television Station's Elephant News large-scale integrated media reported on "Xiu Wen in the Golden Age", which gave an in-depth explanation of Xi Jinping's cultural thoughts and strived to promote the party's innovative theory to fly into the homes of ordinary people.
"Cultivation of Literature in the Prosperous Age丨Culture Has Roots and Civilization Has Origin" is launched today
On May 16, 2023, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the Yuncheng Museum to learn more about the origins of mankind and the early historical development of Chinese civilization in Yuncheng.
He emphasized that the museum contains many precious cultural relics and even "national treasures", which testify to my country's millions of years of human history, 10,000 years of cultural history, and more than 5,000 years of civilization. The study of civilization history leads to in-depth research.
Yuncheng, known as "Hedong" in ancient times, is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization.
Here, fossils of "Auropithecus auratus" about 45 million years ago were discovered, pushing the origin of higher primates forward by 10 million years.
Here, evidence of the earliest human use of fire 2.43 million years ago was found. Burnt bones and antlers with cut marks shine with the light of ancient human wisdom and civilization.
Here, Yao, Shun, Yu and China's first slave society, the Xia Dynasty, successively established their capitals, giving birth to China's earliest farming civilization.
Thousands of years of civilization have left Yuncheng with rich cultural relic resources. In the Yuncheng Museum, each exhibit tells future generations about the vicissitudes of China's ancestral culture.
To let the world understand China, China must first understand itself
Shanxi is a well-known province of cultural relics in China, with numerous cultural heritage sites that have undergone many vicissitudes dotted like brilliant stars in the vast and boundless river of history. According to incomplete statistics, Shanxi currently has 53875 immovable cultural relics, ranking fourth in the country; 531 national key cultural relics protection units, ranking first in the country; There are 28027 ancient buildings, accounting for about one tenth of the country.
The Yungang Grottoes are a world cultural heritage. Protecting the Yungang Grottoes is not only of Chinese significance, but also of world significance. Historical and cultural heritage is a non-renewable and irreplaceable precious resource, and protection must always be given top priority.
