The second floor comprises the Bashu Bronze Hall, the Dafeng Hall (the Zhang Daqian Calligraphy and Painting Gallery), the Chinese Calligraphy and Painting Masterpieces Gallery and the Ceramics Hall. The third floor includes the Light of Buddhism gallery, the Wanfosi Stone Carving Gallery and the Ancient Elegance Arts and Crafts Museum, most of which reflect Sichuan's folk customs.
