Un poco de historia
Established in 2005, the museum was built to preserve and exhibit cultural relics salvaged during the Three Gorges Dam project, which led to the relocation of millions and the submersion of ancient sites. It replaced the former Chongqing Museum and has since become a key repository for regional heritage.
