Magic City Walk | The bank museum on this "Wall Street" of the Bund hides a century-old vault

I heard that the century-old vault on the Bund has recently been opened again, so I took advantage of the late summer and early autumn, and brought Dongdong to this rumored "Bank Museum" on the weekend to feel the historical changes of the banking industry in Shanghai and Hong Kong. The exhibition hall on the 2nd floor is not very big, but it is worth seeing, and you can see the century-old "vault", you can say that it is full of gains. —————————————————— 【Geographical Information】 🪙Museum name: Shanghai-Hong Kong Bank History Exhibition Hall 🗄️Address: East Asia Bank Building, 299 Sichuan Middle Road, Huangpu District 🚇Transportation: 600 meters walk from Exit 7 of Nanjing East Road Station on Line 10 🕐Opening hours: 10:00-17:00, stop admission at 17:00 💳Tickets: Free and no appointment required (you can register by scanning the code at the entrance) —————————————————— 【Check-in Features】 Introduction: Designed by the famous Hungarian architect Hongda, the retro outline, coupled with the mosaic marble decoration, is one of the representatives of the "Art Deco" style architecture.

The construction of the East Asia Bank Building began in 1925 and was completed in 1926. The Shanghai-Hong Kong Bank History Exhibition Hall was established in 2018, focusing on the rise and fall of the banking industry in Shanghai and Hong Kong from the mid-19th century to the present, with historical time as the main line, showing the integration and development of the banking industry in Shanghai and Hong Kong and the results of exchanges.

The 1st floor displays a large number of "chao ticket money" from different periods, as well as calculators and typewriters used by banks, and restores the old bank counters and workstations, and also sets up interactive photo check-in experiences (there are also friendly reminders for photo spots), and the vault scene also sets up interactive game experiences and immersive feelings.
