Xinle Culture, Archaeological site in Huanggu District, Shenyang, China.

The Xinle site spans 44 acres and contains remains of 40 Neolithic houses along with numerous stone tools, pottery, and wood carvings.

The archaeological excavations, which began in 1973, revealed a civilization that existed from 5500 to 4800 BC near the Liao River on the Liaodong Peninsula.

The Museum of Xinle Civilization features two sections, with reconstructed ancient dwellings in the north and artifact exhibitions in the south.

The site provides guided tours and educational programs that explain the significance of discovered artifacts and their connection to early agricultural practices.

A wooden carving discovered in 1978, estimated to be 7,200 years old, represents one of the earliest examples of such artifacts found worldwide.
