二里头夏都遗址博物馆
Erlitou Site Museum of the Xia Capital
The museum displays the archaeological culture and large-scale planned settlements of Erlitou in the early second millennium BC. Turquoise craftsmanship, bronze production, palace areas, roads, and rammed earth foundations support discussions of specialized crafts and early state formation. The correspondence between the site and the Xia Dynasty recorded in documents still involves interpretation, and excavation evidence should be distinguished from later textual identification.

Opening hours
Confirmed opening hours are not available on this page. Check opening and last-entry times with the venue before setting out.
Getting there
The museum is located in Yanshi District, far away from the central city of Luoyang. Scheduled public transportation or compliant vehicles should be used, and the last return trip should be confirmed before visiting.
Practical notes
Reservations should be made and the respective openings of the archaeological site park and museum exhibition halls should be confirmed. Look at the chronology line first, and think of the restoration as a hypothesis based on evidence rather than a direct picture of ancient life.
