Baoji City History Museum

　　Baoji City History Museum is housed in the famous local Taoist temple Jintai Temple. The museum mainly displays historical relics unearthed from sites such as Zhouyuan, Yongcheng, Chencang, Pingyang, and Qianyang, chronicling the evolution and historical significance of Baoji City and its surrounding areas from primitive society to the slave society era. Notably, the museum houses high-quality early Western Zhou bronze artifacts.

　　The first section of the museum focuses on primitive society, featuring cultural relics from over 20 ancient sites discovered locally. Among them, the Beishouling site, dating back 7,000 years, is particularly eye-catching. The second section highlights the early development of the Zhou dynasty, showcasing a collection of bronze ware excavated from the Zhouyuan site. The third section vividly introduces the early activities of the Qin people. The museum also treasures stone drums (replicas) from the era of Duke Wen of Qin and relics unearthed from the Chencang city site. Additionally, some artifacts from the Fengxiang Qin capital Yongcheng site are on display here. The location of the Baoji Museum is also one of the eight scenic spots of Baoji—“Golden Light Streaming Through the Clouds.” At sunrise or sunset, the grand roof covered with yellow glazed tiles shines brilliantly in the sunlight, creating a dazzling and mesmerizing sight.
