Sanxingdui (Chinese: 三星堆；pinyin: sānxīngduī): The unique Sanxingdui Museum is located in the northeast of the Sanxingdui remains, covering an exhibition area of 4,000 square meters (about 1544.4 square miles). They unexpectedly uncovered traces of an ancient city, 3,000 yiars old,tentatively believed to have been the capital of the Ba-Shu culture. More than a thousand pieces of culture relics unearthed, including an extraordinary trove of bronze,gold, and jade artifacts, etc. The sacrificial pits are believed to be sites for the ancient Shu people to offer sacrifice to Heaven, Earth, mountains, rivers, and other natural gods. This discovery uncovered the veiling of Shu and padded the blankness of bronze culture in Chinese archaeological history. The museum is divided into four sections, displayed more than 1000 pieces of cultural relics from Sanxingdui Relic and the two sacrificial pits of Shang Period, including gold plate, bronze ware, jade articles, pottery and ivory. Each of the four sections has its own theme.
