A treasure trove of knowledge where you can learn about 5,000 years of Chinese history at once

The Shanghai Museum, a large national museum located in People’s Square, features a rich collection of precious Chinese ancient bronzes, ceramics, paintings, calligraphy, and more. The fact that admission is free is also a great bonus! The building’s design expresses the ancient Chinese concept of “round heaven and square earth” with a circular roof and square base. In this quiet and calm space, you can deeply experience Chinese culture. It’s also perfect for a visit during sightseeing breaks, with air conditioning making it a great place to cool off in summer. Exhibits are available in English and Chinese, making it friendly for foreign tourists. 📍Location: 201 Renmin Avenue, Huangpu District, Shanghai #VisitChina #ShanghaiMuseum #ChineseArt #FreeMuseum #PeoplesSquare #CulturalExperience
