藏医药文化博物馆
Tibetan Medicine Museum
The museum is located at the same location as the "Qinghai Tibetan Culture Museum". It is located at No. 36, Jing'er Road, Biotechnology Industrial Park, Chengbei District, Xining City. It is a hospital with two museums - the south museum is dedicated to Tibetan culture (charges apply), and the north museum is dedicated to Tibetan medicine (free). The treasure of the South Hall is the 618-meter giant Thangka "Painted Grand View", which broke the Guinness record. It was painted by more than 400 painters using natural minerals, gold and silver pigments for more than 20 years, and is known as the "Encyclopedia of Tibetan Culture". There are only a few sets of Pulan Feitian Suit in the Tibetan Costume Hall on the second floor, which is a national intangible cultural heritage. The medical theme of the North Library is free, and displays the stone-engraved version of the "Four Medical Classics", Mantang medical wall charts, Tibetan medicine specimens, etc., which are of high gold content.
