Centre-ville, Hantai museum

Hantai or the Han Platform is nowadays a museum about the history of Hanzhong. Most objects are about the Ancient Plank Road. The museum is located in the heart of the city on East Road, and is a small oasis of peace. In 206 BC Liu Bang, the king of Hanzhong, had his palace here. After the defeat of the Qin, he took over the power and became so the first emperor of the Han dynasty.
