Release Time: 2017-10-25

    May 18 – the International Museum Day, will come to us again. Today, the reporter learned that the citizens of Chengdu could visit the Jinsha Site Museum free of charge on May 18 so as to appreciate the numerous treasures of the precious cultural relics filled with secrets and witness the glory of the ancient ancestors.

    It is said that in order to let the museum go into the public's attention and let more people appreciate the splendid civilization of the mankind, the International Museum     Association under the UNESCO announced in 1977 that May 18 was designated as the International Museum Day. 

    The most precious treasure of the Jinsha Site Museum is the gold foil “Sun Bird”. The gold foil “Sun Bird”, with the thickness of 0.02cm and gold content up to 94.2%, is not only the emblem of our Chengdu, but also the logo of the Chinese cultural heritage. When you enjoy the mysterious light of the gold foil “Sun Bird” across the glass, your mood can be truly expressed by the theme song of the musical Jinsha –“One Day”---- "I often think that what is hidden in the core of the earth below thousands of meters. They are silent as me. But the magma is rushing and the blood is flowing. You may have heard that the wordless songs in the unknown corner at late nights.”

    After visiting the museum, you can also go to the Jinsha Theater in the northwest of the Jinsha Site Museum, enjoying a fantastic musical and witnessing a soul-stirring love. We believe that you will have a deeper perception of the cultural relics in the Museum.
