Wow. Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Museum. A whole museum focused on the Xinjiang region. On display are cultural relics and mummified remains from about 2,000BC to the Qing Dynasty. History of the region's development from the Han Dynasty to the current era. Need a whole day or more to cover all the exhibition halls. Not all displays have description in English.
