Location: Wuhan Museum Location: Wuhan City, Hubei Province The moon of today is not seen by the people of ancient times, yet the moon today has once illuminated the ancients.
Walking into the Wuhan Museum, the afternoon sunlight pours through the dome onto the display cases, and for a moment, it seems to collide perfectly with the sentiment of the poem "The present people do not see the moon of ancient times, but the moon now once shone on the ancients." In the Chu Culture Exhibition Hall, a set of bronze chimes stands quietly, with the greenish patina hiding the sounds of music and ritual from over two thousand years ago. Imagine the ancient people striking the bells and singing under the bright moonlight, accompanied by the flowing river, while at this moment, the same set of chimes that once basked in the moonlight now gazes at the present people through glass. Turning to the Ming and Qing exhibition area, a wooden lighthouse from Hankou Wharf stands out prominently. Although the lamp has long been extinguished, one can almost envision the ancient boatmen navigating by moonlight and lanterns, with the calls of the boatmen wafting through the river breeze. As I leave the museum, the moon quietly climbs the eaves in the twilight. It has once illuminated the cities of the Chu people and the docks of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and now it reflects the gaze of today's people as they contemplate history. A thousand years of time flows quietly in the moonlight.
