Niuheliang Archaeological Site

Across the Lingyuan–Jianping boundary in Chaoyang, Niuheliang brings together temples, altars and stone-covered graves from roughly 5,500 to 5,000 years ago. Protective halls and the site museum help explain the excavated landscape. Excavated jade figures are held by the Liaoning Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, alongside a much wider regional collection.
