Travel in Guizhou · A complete guide to visiting the Guizhou Provincial Museum!

⭐️Museum Introduction: The Guizhou Provincial Museum is like a three-dimensional history book, connecting Guizhou's past and future. The first and second floors are the 'Ethnic Guizhou' exhibition halls, and the third floor houses the 'Historical Guizhou' and 'Paleontology Kingdom' exhibition halls. The Guizhou Provincial Museum has a total of 7 exhibition halls, but in reality, there are 3 main ones, spanning from the first to the fourth floor. The remaining so-called exhibition halls 4-7 are actually used for exhibitions when available, but usually, there's nothing there. What we see are actually its conference rooms and office halls, and the 4D cinema is not open for public viewing, so it can be mostly ignored. Here, you can find artifacts from 2000 years ago—the Eastern Han Dynasty bronze chariot and horse 🐎, which is a masterpiece among the same type of chariot and horse models unearthed in the country and is also the museum's treasure. ⭐️Major Exhibition Halls of the Museum: 01 'Ethnic Guizhou' Basic Exhibition Hall: Mainly displays the ethnic culture and artifacts of the Han, Miao, Bouyei, Dong, and other ethnic groups.
