Walking into the Chuxiong Museum is like being in a place you have just visited, which makes you unable to help open a "magic box" full of memories and imagination and look for the answer to the eternal mystery with great interest. The tunnel through time is an October solar calendar that shines with wisdom and light, a dinosaur fossil that shocks the soul, a bronze drum of Wanjiaba that still rings with the grand voice of ancient civilization, an earthen palm house residential building with strong local characteristics, and a colorful national costume that shows ten thousand customs.

Walking through the tunnel of time, every moment of the calendar shines; Walking in the tunnel of time, people can't help sighing the finiteness and infinity of life, feeling their own smallness and the greatness of mankind; Stroll through just visiting, communicate with history, talk with predecessors and embrace the future. The long river of time is endless, human beings thrive and human civilization is brilliant and eternal.
