China Red Sandalwood MuseumⅠ

A rare timbre, red sandalwood, also known as zitan (紫檀), used to be regarded as equal to gold and jade in ancient China. The evergreen tree grows so slowly that it takes around 300 years before it reaches full growth. And only 1/10 of its content can be utilized for making furniture. The growth rings of a red sandalwood tree are closely spaced together, and the timber is extremely dense and hard. Unlike common wood materials, the red sandalwood is so heavy that it sinks in water! It is usually purplish-red in color, sometimes with grayish-black hues, but darkens overtime. The wood gives off a subtle fragrance, which, coupled with its color and shade, gives the furniture a note of elegance and prestige.

"I realize that for ordinary people with little knowledge about all this, a place where only stones and bone flakes can be found might be tedious," Gao told us. As an enthusiast of natural history, though, he hopes the museum will improve enough to encourage regular folk to take an interest. Certainly, one hopes the very nature of its location will continue to draw double takes and puzzled inquiries from those out picking up their luxury goods.

The Wangfujing Paleolithic Museum

Address: 1P3 Oriental Plaza, No. 1 East Chang'an Avenue, Dongcheng District

Hours: 10 am – 3:40 pm (weekdays); 10 am – 6:30pm (weekends)

There is no question humans were active here, but it appears the exposed plains were a temporary campsite for hunting parties, rather than a long-term abode for Peking Man. While it appears the painters often lost themselves in whimsy when recreating their vision of Peking Man's lifestyle, their portrayals of him living alongside what Li claims is the "ancient Beijing ostrich" appears to have some credence – the museum's the eggshell fragments to prove it.

The museum is good for a half-hour visit but the amateurish paintings and shabby plaster replicas of Peking Man are amusing for mostly the wrong reasons. Volunteer guides of the Beijing Museum of Natural History Gao Yuan, a student, and Chen Xiaowei, a high school teacher, seem to acknowledge this.
