🎯No reservation required, free admission! Closed on Mondays
📍This is a new museum, so the facilities are not fully ready, but it does not prevent you from visiting the exhibition~
The first and second floor exhibition halls are temporarily open, and there are free explanations at 9:30 in the morning and 3:30 in the afternoon! ✅
There is a free 3D movie on the first floor at 3 o'clock, which is about 20 minutes. After that, gather in the hall to listen to the explanation, about an hour and a half!
🎈First floor exhibition area:
Beautiful Jiuquan, part of Dunhuang Grottoes (replica), mural display
✅Yulin Cave No. 25 replica cave, you can watch murals up close
✅There are many replicas of famous paintings in the Sutra Depository Cave. It feels like watching the real thing. If you don't want to go to the crowded Dunhuang, I really recommend it!!!
🎈Second floor exhibition area:
The origin of Jiuquan civilization, development process, Silk Road, part of Dunhuang Grottoes...
✅Museum collection of painted bricks, pottery stoves, sun-patterned painted pottery pots, grotto murals
✅The on-site restoration of "Li Gong" painting murals in the cave, the charm of Feitian is very amazing!
🎈Third floor temporary exhibition area:
There will be different themed exhibitions at any time, you can check the guide in advance before departure
