That museum displays the site of king Nan Yue's tomb and all the artifacts excavated at the time of its discovery including a jade shroud sewn with silk thread,... More

I've been to the Tomb of the Nanyue King three times and enjoyed it each time. It was redone a few years ago and all the English signs are excellent and easy to understand, and provide lots of detailed information on the exhibits. If there's one museum to visit, this is it!

Positif : A place to learn history in Nanyue period. Don't forget to allocate time to watch and learn video in the museum to know the history of The Nanyue King. Negatif : Can't take photo in the some place around the museum
