It is currently the largest earthquake themed exhibition hall in China. Located on the ground floor of the museum, the memorial hall displays nearly 500 photos, more than 300 objects, 4 groups of restorative landscapes and more than 30 wax statues. It mainly shows the great disaster caused by the Tangshan earthquake and the great feat of Tangshan people's earthquake relief and home reconstruction under the care and leadership of the Party Central Committee and the support of the Chinese people's Liberation Army and the whole nation. The above ground and underground floors of the science popularization exhibition hall are a thematic professional science popularization Museum, which is based on the Memorial Exhibition Hall and in the way of science and Technology Museum, comprehensively introduces the earthquake phenomena at all times and in all countries, popularizes earthquake knowledge, and highlights the overall image of the earthquake discipline. Its exhibition area is 6500 square meters, which is divided into the preface hall, the earthquake science exhibition hall, the earthquake activity observation exhibition hall, and the earthquake disaster prevention exhibition hall , earthquake emergency rescue exhibition hall, 4D dynamic cinema, disaster prevention experience classroom, etc. Here, people can experience the powerful power of the earthquake, understand and master the relevant knowledge of escape and self rescue, and receive training and education to deal with a variety of natural disasters.
