In the early 50s, most of Liangshan still retained a relatively complete form of slave society, and after the implementation of democratic reform in 1956, Liangshan leapfrogged from a slave society to a socialist society in a thousand years. In order to preserve the objects and materials of slave society and provide conditions for the study and display of this special and typical social formation, the Liangshan Yi Slave Society Museum was completed and opened on August 4, 1985, and opened free of charge from July 1, 2009. The museum covers an area of 45 acres, with a construction area of 8,000 square meters and a display area of 2,000 square meters.
