Jin Mianju: Jin Mianju is a newly excavated cultural relic in Jinsha Site on February 12, 2007. This mask is the oldest, most intact and largest gold mask in China, and it is also one of the four national treasures of Jinsha Site Museum. At the beginning of the design of the fourth exhibition hall, considering that the archaeological work of Jinsha site is not over yet, there may be archaeological surprises for everyone at any time, so the exhibition space of new cultural relics was reserved. This mask was not exhibited in the museum until half a year after its opening. Its display position is in a straight line with the "Sunbird" gold ornaments, and they complement each other with the "Sunbird" gold ornaments, emitting brilliant brilliance.

The museum is located in the underground west hall, covering an area of about 830 square meters. The main purpose of the exhibition is to sort out the development of ancient Shu culture in Sichuan in the pre-Qin period and let visitors know the source and destination of Jinsha Site.

The central sand table shows the distribution area of ancient Shu civilization and its close relationship with surrounding cultures. Baodun culture-Sanxingdui culture-Twelve Bridges in Jinsha-vividly shows the civilization course of post-Shu culture through photo exhibition boards and unearthed cultural relics. The splendid historical background of Jinsha culture suddenly became clear, and the real context of cultural development became increasingly clear.

Ancient Shu Situational Sand Table: The spatial layout takes the central sand table as the core and encloses a semi-closed theme space. Clear tones and simple lines convey the long and heavy history of ancient Shu. This model schematically shows the relationship between the cultural circle of Shu country centered on Shu country and the cultural circle of surrounding areas.

Cultural relics exhibition: A large number of elaborate and tailor-made auxiliary exhibition tools are organically combined with the lighting system, giving consideration to the artistic beauty of cultural relics and the safety of exhibits. In recent decades, dozens of Shang and Zhou remains similar to Jinsha have been found in Chengdu Plain and the surrounding areas of Sichuan Basin. They are like stars all over the sky, forming the trend of stars arching the moon, which highlights the prominent position of Jinsha as the political, economic, religious and cultural center of the ancient Shu kingdom at this time. Together with Jinsha site, they constructed the magnificent social and historical background of the ancient Shu kingdom from the late Shang Dynasty to the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Mist: The discovery of Jinsha Site has filled the gap in the study of ancient Shu history and opened a new chapter in the study of ancient Shu history. While people are delighted to discover Sanxingdui site and the source of Shu culture in the Warring States period, they are troubled by more mysteries. Although the excavation and research in recent years have uncovered a corner of the mystery of Jinsha, there are still many mysteries that cannot be solved for a while and need to be explored by people.
