Maritime Silk Route Museum, Maritime history museum in Hailing Island, China
The Maritime Silk Route Museum contains five exhibition halls shaped as interlinking elliptical rings, displaying artifacts from ancient maritime trade routes.
Opening in 2009, this museum houses the Nanhai 1, a merchant vessel from the Southern Song Dynasty that sank near Hailing Island in the 12th century.
The museum collection includes 300,000 artifacts, including ceramics, gold items, and silverware that document trade connections between China and other civilizations.
Visitors can access the museum from Yangjiang Coach Station by taking a bus to Zhapo, followed by a taxi ride to Silver Beach.
The Crystal Palace section features an aquarium tank that preserves the Nanhai 1 shipwreck in conditions similar to its underwater discovery location.
