National Museum of China is one of the places I visit the most all year round. Here are some great shows ongoing at the museum. They will last until late March and even longer. So need not to hurry, just take your time. 国家博物馆是我一年里最经常出没的地方之一了。今天就给大家推荐几个正在国博展出的大展，展期至少到3月中下旬、甚至更长的时间，大家可以合理安排时间看展。 金玉满堂 ▲ 海报设计：赵镭 The exhibition until March 21 gathers more than 240 objects from the extensive assemblies of artifacts of Shenyang Palace Museum and National Museum of China. It presents the many aspects of the court life of predecessors of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) when they resided at the Shenyang palace in Shenyang, Liaoning province, and the early period of the dynasty after it was established in Beijing in 1644. 此次大展汇聚了超过240组件来自沈阳故宫博物院和国家博物馆的馆藏精品，向我们展示了满清入关前和入关后清代早期宫廷生活的方方面面。展览持续到3月21日。 ▲ 掐丝珐琅象驮瓶 沈阳故宫博物院藏 ▲ 掐丝珐琅宝相花大冰箱 沈阳故宫博物院藏 Antiquities on display include imperial ornaments, weaponry and military equipment, and objects for the exclusive use by the emperor, and recreate scenarios of politics, daily life, culture, art and religions in the empire's "forbidden city". 展出的文物包括宫廷陈设、武器装备、皇帝专用品等等，观众得以一窥内廷的政治、文化、艺术和宗教生活。 舟楫千里 ▲ 海报设计：何欣 The exhibition until March 21 navigates the excavation and development of the Grand Canal, the longest artificial waterway in the world.

But where did these mystic patterns come from, what did they mean, and why have they vanished? 新石器和青铜时代的先民们在陶器上勾勒出各种充满想象力与美感的线条、图形，这些神秘图案、符号的来源、含义和消失的原因让驻足展柜前的我们着迷。 ▲ 人面器口漩涡纹壶 榆中县博物馆藏 ▲ 哭泣纹人头形器盖 临夏市博物馆藏 摄影：姜东 People may find answers to these questions at this exhibition until May 9.
