Sanxingdui immersive private tour

Experience the mysterious ancient Shu culture of Sanxingdui, and make a non-material cultural heritage gold foil painting by yourself, taking away a unique cultural memory.

This half-day tour will take you on a journey through time, allowing you to deeply experience ancient Shu civilization and exquisite craftsmanship. Your professional guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel and take you to the Sanxingdui Museum. On the way, your guide will introduce the itinerary and the historical background of the ancient Shu civilization.

After a quick entry with exclusive access, you'll begin an immersive cultural journey with your guide. You'll get an up-close look at the stunning bronze artifacts, golden masks, and jade carvings, learning the stories behind these mysterious relics from over 3,000 years ago. You'll have plenty of time for photos, questions, and to fully immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring atmosphere.

The second stop is an intangible cultural heritage studio. Under the guidance of a master artisan, you'll learn about the history of gold leaf craftsmanship and its place in art. You'll choose a template with Sanxingdui cultural elements, such as a bronze mask or sacred bird, and learn to apply special glue, brush on 24K gold leaf, and then frame your unique creation for easy transport and collection. This is more than just art--it's a profound experience of traditional gold and silver foil craftsmanship.
