The Ningxia Museum, as a provincial comprehensive historical museum in China, was previously located in the Chengtian Temple in Yinchuan City. The new museum is now divided into three main sections: a general history section, a special exhibition section, and a temporary exhibition section, displaying a total of twelve exhibitions. These exhibitions complement and contrast each other, presenting the history and culture of Ningxia and its unique regional characteristics from multiple angles. The first floor has a visitor service hall and a temporary exhibition hall. In the "Stone Carving History Book" rock painting exhibition hall, you will feel like you have traveled back to ancient times. Although most tourists go to Helan Mountain to admire ancient rock paintings, here you can see more rock paintings from the Ningxia region, many of which are not often noticed or visited by visitors. The second floor presents the "Ningxia General History Exhibition Hall," which is also one of the museum's key areas. The treasures on display here include the Western Han Dynasty's gold, silver, and bronze goat, Tang Dynasty's Hu Xuanwu stone door fan, Western Xia Dynasty's gold-plated bronze cow, figure steles, and protruding nail glass bowls. In addition, you can also see rubbings of the "Liangzhou Restoration of Guosi Temple Gantong Tower Inscription," written in Western Xia script, which looks more like square characters than Chinese characters. The third floor presents the "Returning Home Style Exhibition," which mainly includes historical records and various collections of the Quran, making it a great place to learn about Muslim culture and Islamic history.

In the past, it was a border fortress, but now it has become the best shooting location for movies and TV shows in western China and ancient themes. Among many Chinese film and television cities, this film studio is very Northwest-style with its simple, primitive, rough, desolate, and folk characteristics.
More than 60 famous movies and TV dramas, such as "A Chinese Odyssey," "New Dragon Gate Inn," and "Lethal Wolf," have been filmed here. In addition, the film city also provides rental services for costumes and props, allowing you to experience the feeling of being a character like the Purple Cloud Fairy or the Monkey King.

The scenic area features magnificent scenery of the northwestern landscapes, including desert, the Yellow River, mountains, and oases, as well as the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan.

Shapotou was also one of the filming locations for the TV show "Dad, Where Are We Going?", and tourists can experience the fun of filming in the interactive parent-child area and filming base within the scenic area. The unique S-shaped geographical landscape of Shapotou is similar to the Chinese Yin-yang Taiji diagram, which has been hailed as a world wonder by the famous National Geographic magazine in the United States.
