Yancheng has a history of salt production of more than 2100 years, which is the source of the long salt culture in the lower reaches of the Huaihe River and the Yellow Sea. Since ancient times, sea salt culture has always been the main body and essence of Yancheng culture, and has become the cultural root of the city.

Museum modeling

The museum is divided into the main building, sea salt culture square and sea salt industrial zone, including the construction of multi-storey scenes and statues reflecting the production of sea salt and salt people's life.
