[2025 Nanchang Attraction] Travel Guide for The National Archaeological Site Park of Nanchang Han Dynasty Haihun Marquis (Updated Mar)

The Nanchang Han Dynasty Marquis of Haihun State Archaeological Site Park mainly includes the Site Museum, the Tourist Service Center and supporting facilities, Haihun Avenue, and the Liu He Tomb protection and exhibition projects. We will focus on two main areas: the Site Museum + Liu He Tomb. 1⃣️First: Enter the Tourist Service Center, exchange your voucher for a physical ticket, and take the shuttle bus. It's a 5-minute ride to the Site Museum. 2⃣️Second, visit the museum. Allow 2–3 hours. You can purchase cultural and creative products at the exit. Golden Haihun Exhibition Hall: Admire unearthed gold, jade, and bronze artifacts, and experience the luxurious life of a Han Dynasty nobleman. Encountering Haihun Exhibition Hall: Learn about the discovery and excavation of the Marquis of Haihun's tomb and the significance of archaeological work through multimedia interactive displays. Scholarly Haihun Exhibition Hall: Appreciate unearthed bamboo slips and wooden tablets to understand Han Dynasty culture and education. Lacquerware Haihun Exhibition Hall: Admire the unearthed lacquerware and experience the exquisite craftsmanship of Han Dynasty lacquerware. ⚠️If you're short on time, just visit the "Golden Haihun" exhibition hall. It's on both the 1st and 2nd floors, and features gold cakes, Five Emperors coins, linzhi gold, and horseshoe gold. 3⃣️Next, take the shuttle bus for a 5-minute ride to the tomb complex. It takes about half an hour to see everything. [Must-see] Visit the Liu He Tomb site to learn about Han Dynasty burial systems and ritual culture. Tips: The Zijin City ruins area is not yet open. After seeing the tomb, the shuttle bus will return to the park entrance. I recommend the grilled sausages in the park; they are 6 yuan each, meaty, and delicious. ⏰Opening hours: 9:00–17:00, closes at 16:00, open year-round. 🎫Tickets: 60 yuan (discounts are available), shuttle bus ticket: 15 yuan (round-trip per person). 🎤Paid guided tours: "Golden Haihun," 60 minutes, book on-site. Groups of 10 people, 30 yuan/person for Chinese, 60 yuan/person for foreign languages. 🎤Free guided tours: Available on the first Monday of each month starting in 2025. Register at the "Guided Tour Service" at the entrance. 🎤Self-guided audio tours: 30 yuan/each, 200 yuan deposit. 🚗Transportation: Driving is the preferred method. If you can't drive, you can take the bus. Taking a taxi there is possible, but it's difficult to get a taxi back. 🍜Dining: There are restaurants in the park, but I prefer the 6-yuan grilled sausages. They are very tasty! From Nanchang City to the Marquis of Haihun State Archaeological Site Park: Bus No. 666, starting from Tangzihe Station Daily frequency: Departures from Tangzihe at 8:00, 9:30, and 14:30. Return trips from the Site Park at 12:30, 14:30, 16:00, and 17:30 (departure times are adjusted flexibly based on passenger flow).

The park is located in Tiehe Township and Datangping Township, Xinjian District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province. It is centered on the seventh batch of China's key cultural relics protection units - the Zijin City Site and the Tiehe Ancient Tombs, and covers an area of ​​12.03 square kilometers. The park is divided into six functional areas: the ruins museum area, tomb display area, Zijin City display area, archaeological reserved area, entrance functional area, and historical experience and ecological leisure area. The ruins of the Han Dynasty Haihunhou State in Nanchang are the largest, best preserved, most complete and most richly endowed typical Han Dynasty marquisate capital settlement ruins discovered in China to date. The owner of the tomb of Marquis Haihun is Liu He, the grandson of Emperor Wu of Han and the first Marquis Haihun. He was emperor for 27 days and then deposed, known in history as the "Deposed Emperor of Han."
