More than 4000 years ago, the Sichuan Basin nurtured the brilliant ancient Shu civilization. The Sanxingdui and Jinsha sites rose like two twin stars of civilization, illuminating the golden age of China's Bronze Age.
Step into the "Twin Stars Illuminating the World" exhibition, and encounter over 200 sets of precious artifacts, including the Sun and Immortal Birds Gold Ornament and the Bronze head portrait with a gold mask. Through 4 thematic sections: "Stunning Treasures," "The World of Humans and Gods," "Bridging Heaven Earth," and "Integration and Mutual Learning." The daily life, craftsmanship and spiritual beliefs of the ancient Shu people gradually become clear before your eyes.
This exhibition also places Sanxingdui and Jinsha artifacts alongside relics from Henan, Zhejiang, and Shanxi, and other regions of China, allowing civilizations from different areas to converse in the same space, outlining a magnificent picture of the diverse integration of Chinese civilization.
