Hunan Provincial Museum
Located on Dongfeng Road, the Hunan Provincial Museum, is one of China’s better museums. The complex has three main buildings, one of which covers revolutionary history and two that are devoted to the Western Han (206 BC-24 AD) tombs that were discovered at Mawangdui, 4km northeast of Changsha. The tomb exhibits are predictably better than the revolutionary one. The tombs, discovered in 1972 and containing over 3,000 antiques, were the burial ground for the Marquis of Dai, Li Cang, and his family. Li Cang was Prime Minister to the King of Changsha between 193 and 186 BC. The bodies, considering their age, remain in very good condition, especially the Marquis’s wife, Xin Zui, who died in 186 BC. The reason for her preservation was the body, that was wrapped in over 20 layers of silk and linen, a triple layered wooden sarcophagus, that was sealed with charcoal and white peat, and a tomb, that was lined with clay and charcoal. The Marquess can now be viewed in the basement, partially unwrapped and preserved in a liquidfilled Perspex tank. Her organs are in separate jars, and from laboratory tests, scientists were able to establish that the Marquess suffered from a variety of illnesses, from tuberculosis and the bilharzia worm to arthritis.湖南省博物馆位于长沙市开福区，与烈士公园毗邻，占地面积5.1万平方米， 公用建筑面积2.9万平方米，筹建于1951年，1956年正式对外开放，是湖南省最大的历史艺术博物馆， 也是首批国家一级博物馆、中央地方共建国家级重点博物馆、全国优秀爱国主义教育示范基地和湖南 省AAAA级旅游景点。 湖南省博物馆藏品达18万余件，尤以马王堆汉墓文物、商周青铜器、楚文物、历代陶瓷、书画和近现 代文物等最具特色，并以此打造了6个展示人类优秀文化遗珍的基本陈列。
