Step into the world of ancient China at the Qin and Han History Museum, where artefacts and exhibitions reveal the achievements of Qin and Han civilisation.
Explore one of the most influential periods in Chinese history and discover how ancient capitals, royal tombs, political systems, craftsmanship, and art shaped the foundations of Chinese culture.
The museum’s signature exhibitions, “Cities and Tombs” and “Craftsmanship and Beauty,” take you through archaeological discoveries, ancient architecture, sculptures, murals, and everyday life from over 2,000 years ago. Learn how cities such as Xianyang and Chang’an became powerful centers that helped shape China’s history.
With so many artefacts and such a broad span of history, it can be difficult to connect the displays and understand the stories behind them on your own. For a more in-depth visit, choose the ticket option that includes an English-guided tour. An experienced English-speaking guide can explain the historical context, connect key artefacts with important events, and help you understand how Qin and Han society developed. You can also ask questions along the way, making the visit more than simply looking at objects and reading exhibition labels.
Both ticket options include an immersive XR experience featuring Tang Dynasty murals. Wearing a headset, you can explore virtual historical scenes and see works such as “The Envoys” and “Polo Game” brought to life. Look for the XR signs in the museum or ask a staff member where to access the experience.
This museum is a rewarding visit for history lovers, culture enthusiasts, and travellers who want to understand China beyond its famous landmarks.
