Description:
Over 30,000 artifacts were stored in this musuem, covering almost each type of Chinese artifacts, including the bronze, pottery and ceramics, jadewares, figurines, oracle bones, epitaphes, silks, and calligraphy/ painting works. However, only 1% were displayed in the exhibition hall due to the limited space.

Some imperial ceramics (from the imperial Kilns) of Ming and Qing dynasties are the most precious collections, some could be matched to those in the Forbidden City Museum.
