三星堆博物馆新馆开工建设

Construction on a new building of the renowned Sanxingdui museum began on Tuesday in the city of Guanghan, Southwest China's Sichuan province.
3月29日，三星堆博物馆新馆建设项目在四川广汉市开工。
The new building is located in the Sanxingdui museum park, with a total floor area of approximately 55,000 square meters -- five times the size of the museum's current buildings.
据了解，三星堆博物馆新馆位于三星堆博物馆园区内，建筑面积约5.5万平方米，是现有场馆建筑面积的5倍。


The new building will house the cultural artifacts unearthed from the No. 1 and No. 2 pits of the Sanxingdui Ruins site, as well as artifacts unearthed in future excavation projects.
新馆除了展示三星堆1、2号“祭祀坑”文物外，还将展示新一轮考古发掘出土的文物。


"A world-class museum and a national archaeological site park are planned, making the museum a national cultural symbol showcasing the origins and development of Chinese civilization," said Wang Juzhong, director of the management commission of the Sanxingdui Ruins site.
广汉市委副书记、三星堆遗址管委会主任王居中说，计划打造世界一流的博物馆和国家考古遗址公园，使之成为展现中华文明多元一体起源发展的国家文化标识。
