Anguo, formerly known as Qizhou, is located in the central plain of Hebei Province. Due to its developed pharmaceutical industry, it is known as the "Medicine Capital" and "The World's No. 1 Pharmaceutical Market".

It has lasted for more than a thousand years. In the history of the development of Chinese medicine culture, this place has formed a distinctive Chinese medicine culture with its profound cultural heritage, and has become a famous Chinese and foreign distribution center for Chinese medicinal materials that radiates throughout the country and neighboring countries and regions.

Philosophy related to the heritage
Eastern philosophy and Western philosophy will present completely different perspectives when interpreting the Chinese Medicine Culture Museum. From the perspective of Eastern philosophy, the Chinese Medicine Culture Museum is not only a space for displaying medicinal materials and pharmaceutical processes, but also a bridge connecting heaven and earth, man and nature. In Taoist thought, the concept of the unity of man and nature emphasizes the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. Chinese medicine, as a product of nature, carries this idea. The efficacy of Chinese medicine not only depends on the materiality of the medicine itself, but also achieves healing and nourishment of life through the harmonization of qi, blood, yin and yang. Therefore, the Chinese Medicine Culture Museum is not only a heritage of traditional medicine, but also a philosophical embodiment of "ruling by doing nothing" and conforming to the laws of nature. Western philosophy may pay more attention to the scientific and empirical nature of Chinese medicine. Since the Enlightenment, Western philosophy has emphasized rationality and logic, and advocated the verification of natural laws through experiments and observations. Western interpretations will focus on the pharmacological mechanisms of Chinese medicine, explore its ingredients and mechanisms of action, and seek to verify the effectiveness and safety of Chinese medicine through modern scientific means. From the perspective of modern medicine, the TCM Museum may become a platform for cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary dialogue, which not only displays the history and culture of TCM, but also promotes the integration of modern science and traditional wisdom. In general, Eastern philosophy focuses on integrity and harmony, while Western philosophy emphasizes decomposition and rationality. These two perspectives make the TCM Museum a multi-dimensional cultural and knowledge exchange space.
