A display of artifacts excavated in Hengshui showcases the place's role in the interchanges among cities of Northern China. There are stone Buddhist statues dated to the sixth century which show a influence on Buddhist art from Hebei and the neighboring Shandong provinces. Also on show are several white-glazed ceramics produced at the Yao kiln that boomed during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). And another glass bottle dated to the Northern Dynasty (386-581) shows glass objects from the West because of the prosperous Silk Road trading.
