The Lajia Site is located in Lajia Village, Guanting Town, Minhe County, Qinghai Province. It is a large Neolithic settlement site. There are many ancient cultural sites from the prehistoric period and the Bronze Age, such as from the Miaodigou period, Majiayao culture, Qijia culture to Xindian culture, etc. Among them, the Qijia cultural sites are more widely distributed. .


The Lajia site is known as the "Oriental Pompeii" on the bank of the Yellow River, and it is a large-scale disaster site discovered so far in my country. But the site shows more than death. In this archaeological museum built in the way of "in situ protection", you can also see various life clues of the ancestors of the Yellow River Tribe. There is the largest stone pan discovered in the history of Chinese archaeology-Huanghe Panwang, which is an amazing discovery in the Lajia site.
