For those interested in art in all its glory, The Shanghai Museum is an unmissable place worthy of the Louvres museum, first of all the architecture of the building is really modern and contrasts with the different collections inside. As often in China, the form of the museum was not chosen by chance. The round shape symbolizes heaven and the square symbolizes earth.

The museum is located in the people’s square, its opening hours are as follows 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., be careful, we only let you in until 4 p.m., closed on Mondays. There is even a restaurant inside.

It can be accessed by Renmin square metro.

This museum is so fascinating that I advise you to plan the day to visit it, personally I spent the day there, there are more than 120,000 exhibits, ranging from pottery to calligraphy through ceramics and antique supply, from the Neolithic period to the Qing dynasty, that is, more than 5000 years of history.

I took a lot of photos, here are a few.
