Visitors interested in exploring the mysteries of the area's natural wonders should not miss the Geological Museum of Guizhou. With more than 100,000 exhibits, including ancient biological fossils, crystals, rock and mineral samples, the museum showcases Guizhou's geological history of the past 900 million years and a paleontological history spanning 600 million years.

Visitors can see rare fossils, including that of a 106-square-meter sea lily, as well as that of one of the most primitive reptiles on Earth, the Keichousaurus hui (an aquatic creature), and the extremely valuable remains of a Guanlingsaurus liangae (also a large marine creature) that was possibly pregnant at the time of its demise.
