Zhoukoudian Peking Man Site

How did ancient humans get along with nature? How do they access and utilize resources? What is the whimsy in their heads? Do they also love beauty? Do they create artifacts too? With these thoughts, you can come to the Peking Man Ruins in Zhoukoudian to find the answer.

Zhoukoudian Peking Man Site is located in Zhoukoudian Longgu Mountain, Fangshan District, Beijing, famous for the relatively complete Peking Ape Man fossils unearthed in the twenties of this century, especially the discovery of the first Peking Man skull in 1929, thus providing a solid foundation for the existence of Peking Man and becoming a milestone in the history of paleoanthropological research.

On the occasion of Cultural and Natural Heritage Day, from June 9 to 11, Zhoukoudian National Archaeological Site Park Square launched cultural markets, special performances and other activities. Children experienced simulated excavation and restoration of fossils as "little archaeologists" in the 300-square-meter simulated archaeological excavation area opened up in the site area. At that time, Zhoukoudian Site Museum and Zhoukoudian National Archaeological Site Park held a number of wonderful exhibitions.
