Modern sculptures depicting activities and people during that time, or replica of some important finding, greeted visitors at the entrance and frontal plaza.
Sun Bird Column, based on a wood-sculptured bird unearthed on site
There were some atmospheric replica huts on the ground, surrounding a few protected spots, which preserved the site when being excavated in modern time.
Replica Huts
In a modest museum behind the sites and the reconstructed huts, some interest discoveries were on display, including nuts, stoneware, clay vessels, and as the center piece, a wood-sculptured bird unearthed there, which was the earliest cultural relic in Shenyang, as well as one of oldest wood sculptures found anywhere in the world. Perhaps, it was too precious, so only the replica was on display.

I found these strange- and primitive- looking vessels the aesthetic highlight of the exhibition.
