The Achievements Exhibition of Nanyue King Museum Collection Solicitation
Behind tightly sealed museum doors lie stories yet untold. Now, the Nanyue King Museum opens its vault to unveil a trove of rare cultural relics collected in recent years—many never before seen by the public.

From ancient coins and pottery to ritual items and precious ornaments, this exhibition is both a celebration of collecting efforts and a thrilling treasure hunt through history. Think of it as a cultural “blind box”—you never know what surprise might be waiting around the corner.
