Turpan Museum | Touching the Slices of Millennia-Old Civilization in the "Heart of the Fire Land"

In the heart of the world's hottest basin lies the driest fragments of time.
Documents, textiles, mummies... These are not mere specimens,
But moments frozen by the press of time's pause button.
The sweetness of grapes and the heat of the Flaming Mountains fade into the background.
Here, only the silent roar of civilization remains.
