Photos of Tianzi Jialiu Museum

The Tianzi Jialiu Museum, or Museum of Emperor’s Chariot Drawn by Six Horses, is a museum located on an ancient burial ground. The museum is divided into two sections, the sacrificial pits and the exhibition building, where visitors can learn about the history of Luoyang City in its role as the royal city of Zhou Tianzi during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The museum also features a large, bronze horse and chariot exhibition area. The remains of the “Jialiu” chariot in the No. 5 chariot pit are particularly marvelous, as this was the chariot used by Zhou Tianzi himself.
