Museum of Bronze Relics Planned for South China
Ningxiang County in Hunan Province, reputed to be "the center of south China's bronze culture", plans to build China's first museum of bronze relics.

Sources with the county government said the museum would cover 20 hectares, and would be built in two or three years at a cost of80 million yuan (about US$9.64 million).

A number of fine bronze relics will be shown to the public for the first time at the museum, said the sources.

Since the 1930s, more than 1,500 bronze relics have been unearthed in Ningxiang County, covering almost all varieties of bronze wares ever unearthed in China.
