I found the museum according to the landmarks. I wanted to see the archaeological mummy inside, but the gate was locked. I heard that it had moved, but there was no notice of relocation, so I had to give up.

I asked the security guard at the door, and said that the closed day is Monday, and the sign inside has also been changed, so everyone should pay attention when going. In fact, I really wanted to take pictures of some ancient objects, but the sign said that taking pictures is strictly prohibited. I asked the female staff at the door, and she also said that I can't take pictures of anything and respect them, so I didn't take pictures. In addition to the two mummified corpses, there are also many cultural relics unearthed from the surrounding ruins, some of which are exquisite and worth taking a closer look.

The museum is not far from the hotel where you stayed. Take bus No. 2 and get off at the Finance School, which is near the station. The visit is free, there is a security check at the door, bags need to be stored, and the service is quite good. The entire exhibition hall is not big, and there is a huge Hetian jade at the door, which is very regional. There are also two corpses in the exhibition hall, and photos cannot be taken. I am particularly interested in the ancient silk map in the exhibition hall, because we are walking along the southern line of the map to the places where the ancients walked, and there is a special feeling.
