Nanzhao Museum

Nanzhao Museum is located on Baoguo Street in the ancient city of Weishan, Dali. It is a venue that inherits the historical and cultural heritage of the Nanzhao Kingdom. Weishan, Dali, is the birthplace of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom. In the year 649 AD, the Yi leader Xinuluo established the Nanzhao Kingdom. With the support of the Tang Dynasty government at that time, Nanzhao gradually unified the Erhai region and 'solemnly followed the Tang Dynasty as the orthodoxy'. The Nanzhao Kingdom lasted for thirteen generations over more than 250 years, making historic contributions to consolidating the territorial integrity of the motherland and promoting ethnic unity and progress in the southwest region.
