From hand-panned gold to modern industry, one mine tells a golden story. The newly opened Gold Museum in Huadian, Jilin province, brings that story to life.
Opened on Sept 19, the museum draws on more than 200 years of gold-mining history, combining immersive underground experiences with exhibitions tracing the legacy of the historic Jiapigou gold mine, China's gold industry, and the role of gold in the modern economy. [Photo/Li Xianpeng]
