Suggestions for History Museum near Shanghai

Akil C. • December 7, 2015The display is very good.

Nicholas O. • December 26, 2016I was pleasantly surprised by how good this was. Worth a visit on its own, with or without a trip up the tower

Time Out Shanghai • November 13, 2012This reservation-only dinner club in a 1930s private residence provides weekly-changing uniformly excellent dishes in a quiet atmosphere. Try the seafood and finish off with a rich chocolate brownie.

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.

Richard S. • October 10, 2010Check out the roof garden, great views over the creek

Jenny • May 26, 2015I wish there had been more labels, especially for the statues. But such a delightful hidden gem, tucked away in the basement of an apartment building with a guard out front.

Tori S. • August 6, 2017Really nice museum. It's small but very interesting and informative. I would definitely recommend a visit.

Tenuunbaigali B. • May 2, 2014Very beautiful place I have ever been recently, in here I'm feeling relaxed & calm. Absolute one of perfect place in songjiang 👌😊🙏

Ken Q. • October 21, 2014It fxxking disappoint me.

Time Out Shanghai • August 16, 2012A museum from yesteryear. Come to see the 22-metre long skeleton of a giant Mamenchisaurus from the late Jurassic Period, whose bones were discovered in Sichuan province. Admission is 5RMB.

Jason • June 5, 2016Be sure to follow the live guide for all the highlights that ever happened in this great private residence. Well-kept main building, huge yard with camphors, even the pigeons are offspring it's said.

Freesoul Y. • February 27, 2019Love the place. I think people should leave 2 hours to walk around. Enter before 4pm. They close at 5pm. Don’t wear flip flops. They didn’t let us in for the first time...

Vincent L. • October 6, 2012Free admission.

J M. • July 17, 2021Mostly introducing history of Shanghai railways, not so much knowledge about how train works. If you are an adult, don’t bother come.

Andre P. • February 5, 2015有点失望，想来看60-70年代的美式肌肉，没想到福特博物馆已经撤展了

Hiromitsu H. • October 15, 2017嘉定区の歴史を勉強することができる

LYS • November 30, 2013小心，这地点有一班“奥斯卡”水准的员工！！

Dave M. • October 4, 2018Looks like Chairman Mao invented the ‘Nail House’ with his little wooden house right between the two halves of the Jing’an Kerry Centre! 🏢🏡🏢

Jason • February 11, 2016Several fun facts to be found out here: T'ou-Sè-Wè is obviously a global brand and they have tons of masterpieces influenced by Catholicism & european culture.

Su-il P. • May 30, 2017상해에 가면 임정 많이 가시는데 윤봉길의사 기념관도 방문하시길 추천합니다. 관련 자료가 잘 준비되어 있기도 하고 주변 공원도 둘러보기 좋아요
