The archaeological site of Yin Xu is located across both banks of the Huanhe River in the northern suburbs of Anyang City, is an ancient capital city of the late Shang Dynasty (1300 to 1046 BC). It testifies to the golden age of early Chinese culture, crafts and sciences. Yin Xu is also an important representative of Bronze Age civilizations worldwide. A number of royal tombs and palaces, prototypes of later Chinese architecture, have been unearthed on the site.
