The Lintong Museum is just up the road from the Huaqing Springs. This is actually a more interesting site than the Springs and many travelers prefer to move swiftly from the springs to the museum. This local museum displays a varied collection of over 10,00 relics, from the stone age up to the Qing dynasty housed in an attractive classical building with red pillars and winding corridors.

This was also the site of the Xi'an incident in 1936 when Chang Kaishek's own troops arrested him. Chang was made to sign an alliance with the Communists against the Japanese at a spot which is today marked by a small red pavilion near the museum.

How to get Lintong Museum : The museum is 150m to the right of the Huaqing Springs and on the route of the Eastern tours from the Bell Tower in Xi'an.
