Suggestions for Art Museum near Shanghai

Audrey G. • October 14, 2016The nuseum itself is beautiful. Always has great exhibits going on. Just make sure to check their working hours. On a nice day, you can walk along the boardwalk right behind the museum as well!

Alex D. • August 7, 2015The public art museum gone lo-fi. Definitely check that they have 3-4 exhibitions running when you go to make it worth your while.

Gabor P. • June 19, 2023Great restaurant on the rooftop with lovely panorama!

Mike W. • September 21, 2014Beautifully curated history museum. Capacity limited so come earlier in the day. Can't beat the (free) admission. All descriptions written in English and Chinese. Splurge ¥40 for the audio guide.

Ginevra V. • December 20, 2016Beautiful contemporary art museum located in People's Park. We visited the "Shan Shui within" exhibition (contemporary chineese artists). Among many interesting works, I liked the Pan Xi at most.

PP1165 • March 30, 2014A fantastic place! Definitely worth a half-day(at least) visit! The hot-glass making performance is amazing!

Chenyue S. • October 7, 2021Art museum @ West Bund

Emile M. • February 8, 2015Make sure you have a coffee or tea on the top floor. Stunning view and great light effects (on the porcelain) if you're blessed with a sunny and clear day.

Jessica S. • June 13, 2013布景简陋，真心不灵~~

jen l. • September 11, 2013If you're into art & craftsmanship, this is a great visit. There's amazing ivory, jade & wood carvings on the main floor & a mix of embroidery, wool crafts, opera costumes, etc. Gifts to buy too

H. R. • February 26, 2015Loved the Liu Dao electric art exhibit. Very unique!

Go Find Alice • November 22, 2016Beautiful worldly exhibitions from around the world

Tina H. • November 27, 2011Amazing architecture! A must see in Shanghai.

Dave M. • November 29, 2020Trendy refurbished historical area like XinTianDi. I heard it was the foreign club area back in the 1920’s. Cool combination of historical and modern architecture.

leon师傅 • November 10, 2018Decommissioned oil tanks, now reappropriated as an art space on the West Bund. Especially good as viewing rooms for video art.

Laura L. • April 29, 2017Very interesting museum. It's small so only 1 hour or so needed. Tricky to find - it's only got a small sign and in the basement of an apartment block. Walk down the side road on the corner.

Dave M. • April 22, 2018Very well done. Symbiotic relationship of local artists getting a place to show their work, and the Café gets a steady stream of patrons for high-end Coffee and snacks.

William K. • March 27, 2016Very obscurely located and you may miss it. Not huge but if the exhibition is right who needs a large hall.

Audz A. • September 7, 2015Good atmosphere for making art! Come join us for painting workshops :)

Ian S. • August 14, 2015Ask if you can use the executive washroom
