architectural composition

The hall is divided into three parts: the entrance hall gives a general introduction to Pingtan and its visiting routes; the second entrance hall sets up a bookstore in the form of Qing Dynasty and regularly performs Pingtan bibliography; the third entrance hall introduces the development history of Pingtan, famous Pingtan artists of various generations, literature and history materials, etc.

The design concept of the museum is to be close to the public and enjoy both refined and popular tastes. While focusing on the full picture of Pingtan's historical development and the performance characteristics of famous schools, it also uses high-tech means to reflect the historical performance scenes and industry customs of Pingtan art. It forms an artistic contrast with the elegant style of its neighbor and China Kunqu museum to show the two aspects of Chinese traditional culture.
