重庆中国三峡博物馆

Three Gorges Museum

Chongqing China Three Gorges Museum explains the municipality through regional archaeology, Ba–Shu culture, wartime history, folk life and the transformation of the Yangtze and Three Gorges. It is especially valuable before travelling along the river because objects, models and documentary material give human and environmental context to landscapes that otherwise appear only scenic.

Getting there

The museum faces People's Great Hall and is reached from Zengjiayan station.

Practical notes

Confirm the current reservation and gallery schedule, then prioritise the Three Gorges, ancient Ba–Shu and wartime Chongqing sections. The museum faces the People's Great Hall and is easy to combine with central sites, but allow enough time for security and large galleries.
