Relics Hall
The Relics Hall covers a construction area of 7,588 square meters and is the sacrificial area of the Jinsha Site. The sacrificial area of the Jinsha Site is one of the ancient remains discovered in China with the longest duration, the best preservation, and the richest burial of sacrificial artifacts. Visitors can experience the frequency and grandeur of the sacrificial activities of the ancient Shu Kingdom here, and also observe the archaeological excavation process up close. The Relics Hall features a semi-circular structure, with its main body reflecting the ancient Chinese cosmological concept of "the sky is round." The sloped architectural form appears to grow out of the earth, symbolizing both the gradual deepening of the archaeological excavation and the sanctity of the sacrificial site. The 63-meter large-span steel structure maximizes the preservation integrity of the ruins. The largest sacrificial area in ancient China, dating back 3,000 years, was distributed along an ancient river channel, approximately 150 meters long, 100 meters wide, and covering an area of about 15,000 square meters. The sacrificial remains have a deposit thickness of up to 4 meters and a continuity of over 600 years.
