China Water Museum

China Water Museum

Located at No. 61 Xiaxin Street in the ancient city, covering an area of over 2,800 square meters. Originally built during the Qing Dynasty and renovated through the generations, it has been restored to its former glory today. In its early days, it served as the largest transit hub on the waterways of Langzhong. The courtyard features interconnected quadrangles, layered pavilions and towers, five wells linked together like a string of pearls, forming a unified whole. The intricately carved doors and patterned windows are a feast for the eyes, with winding paths leading to serene spots, all exuding delicate charm and tranquility. Surrounded by flowers, trees and vines, the space offers a peaceful retreat, seemingly transporting you to another era. As you walk from north to south, the natural rise and fall of the terrain unfold before your eyes. Step out onto the veranda and gaze into the distance, where the painted cityscape and picturesque landscapes unfold like a grand painting. The Water Museum provides a comprehensive introduction to Chinese water culture from four perspectives: water systems, water stones, watercraft, and waterways. Physical exhibits account for 80% of the visual display area. The museum also houses the China Water Dock Inn, offering business-style suites, luxury single rooms, and standard rooms.
