Great place to see old Chinese PLAAF aircraft. A bit busy on weekends but free admission. Many aircraft are in excellent condition considering they are outside and there are tons of old MIGs. That said, some have taken a lot of abuse from guests and show cents, broken windows, etc. Especially the helicopters. Sad that people can't just enjoy them.
The disappointment rises from the fact that the best displays are inside and were all locked and closed. We tried to ask if the hangar and cave were just closed for the day but not a single person spoke any English to explain. Even the Tourist Information office. We attempted to use Google translate but still couldn't get an answer about the best closed bits.
There was a sign written in Chinese on both the hangar (PLAAF history) and the mountain tunnel that apparently holds aircraft from the first 100 years of the PLAAF. One kind guest tried to explain that it's closed but we never figured out why.
The PLAAF uniform museum was padlocked as was the simulator experience. Basically, just wander around the outside aircraft for a couple hours and leave. Disappointing after a long expensive drive from the city.response / report this review -

By organization and upkeep, it's not on par with other major established museums in the US, UK or Russia, but it does have some rare exhibits - well, where else can boast that they've a Mi-6 and a D-21 (alas as wreckage, because it was found crashed back then) all within the same compound? Especially the latter, it's the only one outside the US.
By my memory, they actually have plenty more other stuff still sit in storage, and have been slowly restoring some for display. Given the size of the compound, it can accommodate more exhibits.
Now, if only they can restore more of their exhibits into better conditionresponse / report this review -
