Haogang Relics Museum
Haogang Shell Mound Site, located in Haogang Village of the Shenghe Community in Nancheng District, has an area of over 650 square meters. It is one of the earliest prehistoric cultural relics, it can be dated back about 5000 years. It is very rare, even in China, to find such a well-preserved Neolithic Age site, especially in such a busy downtown area. Some pottery remains, stone instruments, bone tools and clam artifacts have been unearthed along with other important Neolithic relics such as sintering soil, houses, tombs, ash pits and ditches. Two well-preserved ancient human remains have also been unearthed from the tombs. Hence the Haogang Shell Mound area is titled "the first village of the Pearl River delta" and "the foundation of Dongguan's history and culture." Haogang plays a significant role in the research of the pre-historic culture of southern China.
Constructed atop the excavation site, the Haogang Relics Museum, with an area of 4,645 m2, is a relic themed museum which mainly exhibits the colorful pottery culture of the Three-River Area of the Pearl River, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River while also acting as a vital window into ancient civilizations of Dongguan.
