This is another excellent provincial museum that China excels at basically because of the exhibits the country has to display to the public. Established in March 1953, the museum moved to its present location in 1959 and gained its present name in 1963. Since 1999 a number of new buildings have been added which brings a total exhibition area of 50,000 sqm. The museum is located in the Wuchang District of Wuhan, not far from the west shore of Wuhan's East Lake. It has collected over 200,000 cultural relics from the Chu culture and elsewhere, including the Sword of Goujian, an ancient set of bronze bells (Bianzhong) and extensive artefacts from the tomb of Marquis Li.
