Sanxingdui Museum, Archaeological museum in Guanghan, China
Sanxingdui Museum is an archaeological museum in Guanghan featuring two main exhibition halls set across a large site along a river. It displays over 1,500 sets of ancient artifacts organized throughout these spaces.
Archaeological excavations at this site since the 1920s uncovered Bronze Age objects from an early period. The museum was later established to make these important discoveries accessible to visitors.
The exhibition halls display objects from the ancient Shu civilization, including bronze items, golden objects, and jade works. These pieces offer direct insight into the craftsmanship and beliefs of this early kingdom.
The museum is accessible by public transportation or car from nearby cities. Exhibition texts in Chinese and English help visitors understand the objects on display.
The newer building features three mound-shaped structures reflecting the site's name. This design connects the exhibition concept directly to the geographical and linguistic history of the location.
