Rizhao Museum
日照博物馆
A city museum showcasing Dongyi and Longshan culture, with its thin-walled black pottery high-stemmed cup, as thin as eggshell, as a highlight.
The Rizhao Museum is located in the city center. Its collection focuses on artifacts from Longshan culture and the Haiqu Han Tombs. The most famous piece is the “eggshell black pottery high-stemmed cup,” with walls less than 1 mm thick, representing the highest level of prehistoric pottery making. Other highlights include Han dynasty lacquerware and Dongyi jade. Admission is free, but you must book in advance with your ID card. The museum is closed on Mondays. Allow about 1.5 hours for a visit. It is easily reached by bus or taxi, making it a good option on a rainy day.
