Ningxia's only two first-class museums (Guyuan)

Although it ranks last in the economy of the whole region, the museum's heritage is unparalleled in the region The collections are most characterized by the northern bronze wares of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods and the Silk Road relics of the Northern Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui and Tang periods, which have a certain influence at home and abroad. This can also be seen from the setting of the exhibition hall. The Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties are all concentrated in one exhibition hall, which shows that there is really nothing to display The Northern Wei lacquer coffin painting, Northern Zhou gilded silver pot, and convex nail glass bowl are the three treasures of the museum. However, they are handled rather perfunctorily. Except for the gilded silver pot, which is genuine, the other two are using replicas. The lacquer coffin painting is even using a rather deceptive kind of replica. It seems that the only genuine gilded silver pot was put out this year, and it seems to be on a business trip all year round. It is a national treasure that has a lot of social engagements Overall, the more distinctive exhibits are some foreign products introduced from Central and West Asia, which are also the physical basis for the exchange of Chinese and Western cultures In addition to this, what impresses people are some non-mainstream stone carvings in the courtyard, such as a pair of stone lions at the door, which look very old and strange, especially the thing in their mouths that is hard to understand. After checking, it should be something like a ribbon. It seems that these are a pair of meritorious lions A very good prefecture-level city museum, worth a visit, don't make too many demands on the level of exhibition, and also make sure to come when the national treasure is not on a business trip
