This place is in the Hunan Provincial Museum, and it is completely free, but it needs to be booked online. It is very meaningful to visit various cultural relics. It is recommended to bring children to visit together.

I remember that many years ago when I went to the provincial museum, I could see Mrs. Xin Chao and many precious unearthed cultural relics up close. After the new museum was built, the passenger flow was woven, and then with high-tech protection. I have been in the museum for a long time, and I don’t seem to have the opportunity to visit Mrs. Xin Chao in high definition. However, the new museum is magnificent, and the exhibition hall has also increased a lot. It is really worth seeing the combination of scientific and technological and appreciative.

Hunan Provincial Museum Ma Wangdui Han Tomb Hall, no one should be interested in these ancient books and paintings.

Impressive number of pieces discovered. Quite a big exhibition. Name of all pieces and main "chapter" explained in English. However like all museum in China so many people, noisy and non respectful to the others and to the place.
