Some 100 thousand citizens from Chengdu, southwest China's Sichuan Province, have paid their memorable visits to a local Earthquake Museum that features last year's May 12th Wenchuan earthquake over the just concluded Chinese lunar New Year holidays.

The Jianchuan Earthquake Museum, which is located in a suburban county of Dayi in Chengdu, contains some of the most valuable cultural relics from last year's devastating earthquake and preserves many ruins and quake-relief items.

Also on display includes the wedding dress worn by a new bride who lost her life in the quake, the motorbike by which devoted husband Wu Jiafang carried his wife's body all the way home, and a living pig nick-named 'Zhu Jianqiang', or "pig strong" who survived the earthquake after 39 days under rubble.

A museum official says that among all different museums in Chengdu, the Jianchuan Earthquake Museum has received the most visitors, with over 10 thousand people going to visit the place everyday. Many visitors were either shocked, touched, or moved to tears during their visits to the museum.
