Museum and urban symbiosis

"This city of Chengdu is a large museum." The former deputy dean of the Palace Museum, the former Director of the Department of Museum of Cultural Relics and the Department of Social Cultural Relics (Science and Technology).

"The museum grows together with the city. The museum not only records the preservation of urban culture, but also participates in the shape of urban culture. For urban culture, the museum is not only a witness, but also a participant, and it may still be a leader." In Duan Yong A group of museums change a city. There are such examples at home and abroad, as well as Chengdu. Duan Yong's point of view coincides with Shan Xiangxiang. In Shan Xiangxiang's view, Chengdu's museum can have today's scale and popularity, which is inseparable from the characteristics of Chengdu people to enjoy culture.

Second, the deep history of 4600 years, the city site has not been relocated in 3000 years, and the city name is not changed in 2500 years.

Third, the wisdom and dedication of the people of several generations of museums provide a practical guarantee for the museum's service society;

Fourth, the attention of the municipal party committee and municipal government is the fundamental guarantee for the development of the museum.

There is no specific standard for "City of Museum", and there are more than one reason to become the "city of the museum". The harmonious symbiosis of urban development may be the best answer to the question of "the city of the museum".
