[2025 Shenyang Attraction] Travel Guide for Shenyang Financial Museum (Updated Jan)

🏡 This is a dazzling financial culture and art palace, and also the "richest" place, displaying all kinds of genuine coins from ancient times to the present. This is the Shenyang Financial Museum. 🏠 The museum is located in the former residence of Zhang Xueliang, originally the business office building of the former Bianye Bank headquarters. It is a magnificent Roman-style building with a history of nearly 100 years.

More than 80 silicone figures in various costumes of the Republic of China are really shocking, and these silicone figures will be changed twice a year, in winter and summer, which is very thoughtful. 3️⃣ The museum's collection of cultural relics dates back to the pre-Qin period and down to the contemporary era, covering ancient and modern currencies from China and abroad. The treasures of the museum include the earliest gold coins discovered in China - the gold currency Ying Yuan cast by the State of Chu during the Warring States Period, the oldest gold currency Baojinbei and Liujinbei, and the only surviving double gourd seal eight taels gold ingot from the Southern Song Dynasty. 4️⃣ On the second floor of the Shenyang Financial Museum, the World Coin Exhibition and Banknote Exhibition are in front of you.

The Shenyang Finance Museum, originally the Border Industry Bank 🏦, was one of the largest banks in Northeast China during the Republic of China era. The museum now exhibits: the history of financial development in Northeast China, the story of currency, a financial theme park, exchange exhibitions, and a world paper currency culture exhibition, among others. The museum is designed in a very interesting way; just follow the arrows on the ground, and there's no need to backtrack 🥳 The wax figures of various characters in the banking industry in the main hall on the first floor are lifelike, making it hard at times to distinguish between the real people and the wax figures, creating a somewhat indistinguishable confusion Be careful not to touch them with your hands. The museum mainly tells the story of the development of the financial industry in Northeast China and the Chinese securities industry, with each exhibition hall displaying a variety of actual currencies from the Warring States period, the Qing dynasty, the Republic of China period, and modern times. On the second floor, there is a glittering statue of Guan Yu, described as the image of the God of Wealth who has fallen into a pit of money. Walking in, you really feel like you're going to get rich 🤩🤩🤩 Whoever sees it gets a share, congratulations on your fortune! Additionally, the world coin 🪙 and paper currency culture exhibition is the most astonishing, almost encompassing coins and paper money from all countries in the world, which is very rare and unheard of! It's really amazing! This is also the point that I feel is the most meticulously done! It takes about 2-3 hours to see everything here slowly.

An old bank has been transformed into a museum, which is quite interesting. The Shenyang Financial Museum was established using the former site of the Border Industrial Bank, which was controlled by the Zhang family during the Republic of China period. The building was designed by a German architect. Zhang Zuolin and his son Zhang Xueliang, as the de facto rulers of the three northeastern provinces, not only hoped to dominate politically but also attempted to control the economic lifeline of the Northeast region. To achieve this, an important measure was the establishment of the Border Industrial Bank. In 1925, after the Border Industrial Bank, initiated by Zhang Zuolin, was officially established in Tianjin, construction of a new site began to the east of the Fengtian Zhang family's mansion. In 1930, the pistol-shaped Border Industrial Bank building was completed. The museum is located next to Zhang Xueliang's former residence and is open to the public with exhibitions divided into parts such as the history of financial development in the Northeast, the story of currency, a financial theme park, and exchange exhibitions. The exhibitions combine scientific nature, interest, and audience participation. The museum is the largest of its kind in China, with the richest content and the most diverse display forms and audience participation projects. Location: No. 240, Chaoyang Street, Shenhe District, Shenyang City.

A must-see museum in Shenyang! I've taken friends there before, and I went for another stamp on my card during the Shenyang Hui Min ticket event👌🏻 📍Location It's located where you exit the Marshal's Mansion, so you can check off both the Marshal's Mansion and the Financial Museum at the same time‼️ However, the Financial Museum is also worth a visit on its own👀 😋Wax Figures The first thing you see is the wax figures from the Bianye Bank, which are incredibly lifelike‼️ When I was there, it was crowded, and the security guards mistook me for a wax figure😂 Some seats are not for sitting! You can take photos with the wax figures though😋 💰Financial Museum The museum is really huge, super huge‼️‼️‼️ I didn't feel much when I came out of the Marshal's Mansion, but as soon as I got to the Financial Museum, I didn't expect it to be so big😂 The original Bianye Bank trading hall, president's office, and the underground vault, as well as exhibits on the financial history of the Northeast and the story of currency! It's very enlightening‼️‼️‼️ My favorite part is that glittering gold area‼️ I feel like just taking a photo there could turn me into a rich lady haha💰 ✨Stamping It seems like you can buy their notebook and get stamps at each attraction. If you don't buy the notebook, there are only two free stamps😂 And from the Marshal's Mansion to Zhao Yidi to the Financial Museum, it's the same two free stamps! If it's your first time, you can totally buy their 49 yuan notebook😂

The entire building covers an area of 4,967 square meters, with a floor area of 7,440 square meters. The main building in the front has four floors, while the rear building has three and two floors, presenting a blend of Chinese and Western architectural styles. There is a grand platform formed by 11 stone steps in front of the door, with gorgeous decorative lamps on both sides, looking very spectacular. Walking into the hall, the scene of a bank during the Republic of China period is recreated, with very realistic simulated statues whose expressions and movements are extremely lifelike, blending in with the visitors, making it hard to distinguish between real and fake. The main exhibition theme of the Shenyang Financial Museum, 'Approaching the Financial World', perfectly showcases the development of financial history and the profoundness of financial culture.

The Shenyang Financial Museum is a financial industry museum building built on the site of the side bank of the private bank of Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Xueliang's father and son family during the Northern Warlords. It is adjacent to Zhang's Shuai. This formerly known as the Border Bank was built in accordance with the European architectural style, and at that time it was a private bank of a cross-border type. The few pillars of stone pillars in front of the door gave the first time a large national bank's gas field, which was quite the style of a big country's state-owned bank. At the same time, it was known that Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Xueliang's father and son developed to the peak in the military and political career. The period has produced a strong trend of financial and trade development. From the solemn and simple color of appearance, Yamano thinks it is a very influential bank, at least in the period of the Northern Warlords, it must be a very influential bank, even though it is only the private bank of Zhang's father and son. The first sight in the hall will be amazed. The entire hall is full of crowded banks, trade and traders here. However, these characters are made of wax figures, plus realistic skin color and clothing during the Republic of China. I really thought that I came here from my dreams or came across time and space. Its really amazing. Walking around every corner of the hall, every counter or every floor, I feel that I am also at that time. I really feel the prosperity of the side industry bank of Zhangs father and son during the Northern Warlords. It is even more understandable that the border industry bank at the time played an invaluable part for the entire social and economic development, urban construction and overseas trade.
