A museum dedicated to the Xibe ethnic group is currently under construction in Shenyang, with the aim of commemorating and keeping alive the traditional culture of the ethnic group.
 
The Xibe ethnic group mainly inhabits Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region and Liaoning province. They traditionally earned a living through raising animals and lived a nomadic lifestyle. They were known for being proficient in archery and horse riding, and for being brave soldiers.
 
The museum, which is currently under construction, is located in Shenbei New Zone in Shenyang, Northeast China’s Liaoning province, which has the largest concentration of Xibe people in this area.
 
The construction of the museum on the north bank of the Puhe River started on May 24, 2015.
 
The museum, covering an area of 9,804 square meters, will have three floors, containing exhibition halls displaying the history, folk customs and intangible cultural heritage of the Xibe ethnic group. The museum has received about 73 million yuan ($10.59 million) of investment.
 
So far, the museum has already completed construction of the main building; decoration of the interior is now in progress. It is anticipated that the museum will open to the public in May 2017.
 
To better promote the cultural characteristics of the Xibe ethnic group, Shenbei New Zone has designed a total of 29 series and over 200 tourism souvenirs containing elements of Xibe culture.
 
The Xibe museum, along with the Xibe square adjacent to it, will play an important role in promoting the culture of this ethnic group, according to an official in charge of the museum.
