Chengdu Museum
  • The largest comprehensive historical art temple in Southwest China, where nine hundred years of urban memory vividly unfolds among bronzes, ceramics, and stone!

What to expect

Chengdu Museum is located on the west side of Tianfu Square in Qingyang District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China. It occupies the core of the city's central axis, more than 20 kilometers away from Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport. It is the largest comprehensive historical and art museum in Southwest China, a national first-class museum, and a city cultural landmark. The museum houses the essence of six thousand years of civilization, with the three themes of "The Light of Ancient Shu," "The Charm of Qin and Han Dynasties," and "Modern Times," providing a three-dimensional interpretation of the epic of the evolution of Bashu civilization. Here, the dome is like a starlit curtain, and the glass curtain wall reflects the past and present. Han Dynasty pottery and stone collide with digital light and shadow, creating sparks of civilization. It is known as "the palace of Tianfu culture and the city's cultural landmark." It is often said that "without visiting the museum, one cannot understand the soul of Chengdu," which shows the endless vitality of the millennium culture in the tempering of time. The museum houses national treasures such as bronze human face statues, stone rhinoceros, and Han Dynasty storyteller figurines. The museum offers a glimpse into the miracles of history, art, and technology. Book now via KLOOK to enjoy the best ticket deals!

The tour started on time. The tour guide will add you on WeChat to notify you. It's great to directly listen to a 1.5-hour guided tour with essential information. After listening to the guided tour, you'll have a better experience when walking the route.
