Stamps are the product of modern postal services. China Post has a long history of communication, dating back to the Yin and Shang dynasties, with a history of more than 3,000 years. After the middle of the Qing Dynasty, my country's ancient postal post system had accumulated many defects and could no longer undertake the task of information transmission. After the Opium War, with the opening of the country, advanced Western postal technology was also introduced to China. The convenience and speed of the new postal service was quickly recognized by people of insight. In the 4th year of Guangxu (1878), the Qing government customs issued the first set of postage stamps in China's postal history-the "Dalong Stamp", which marked the beginning of the establishment of modern postal services in China.

Square inch stamps are all-encompassing. With its rich content, exquisite design and colorful pictures, the stamps vividly demonstrated the essence of the Chinese nation's culture, witnessed the important process of the development of human history, and reproduced the glorious course of the great motherland. If the stamps of various periods of China are put together, it is not only a microcosm of modern Chinese history, but also a beautiful picture.

This exhibition takes time as the main line, divided into four units: the afterglow of the empire-stamps in the Qing Dynasty, the vicissitudes-the Republic of China stamps, the passion years-the liberated area stamps, and the rising of the sun-the new China stamps, respectively showing the different history of our country The philatelic products issued during the period are hoped that the general public can look back on history and relive the prosperous years.

The exhibition is free and open to citizens, and friends from the general public are welcome to come and visit.
