The second exhibition hall features a showcase of exquisite replicas of gold and silver artifacts. The exhibits primarily consist of replicas of Tang Dynasty Buddhist gold and silver objects unearthed from the underground palace of Famen Temple, as well as gold and silver treasures from a Song Dynasty hoard discovered in Pengzhou, Sichuan. Throughout the entire replication process, meticulous attention was paid to every detail—right down to the delicate engraving of each decorative motif and the overall layout of the designs—all meticulously reproduced at a 1:1 scale, exactly matching the original artifacts. The weight of each replica differs from that of the original artifact by less than five grams.
