The largest city in China is also its most cosmopolitan, offering visitors a chance to experience the past, present, and future all at once. The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline looks like it was ripped from the Jetsons, with the bulbous Oriental Pearl TV and Radio Tower looking a bit like a two headed lollipop. On the Puxi side, you can walk the Bund riverside district to get a taste of old Shanghai.

Known as the “Hollywood in Shanghai,” it was where the renowned Chinese movie studios, including Lianhua, Diantong, Xinhua, Kunlun, Wenhua, Haiyan, and Tianma, were successively born from the 1930s. On November 16, 1949, the Shanghai Film Studio was established here, which would become one of the three largest film production centres in China. Shanghai Film Museum was opened to the public in June, 2013 on the former site of the Shanghai Film Studio. Covering a total exhibition area of 15,000 m2, the museum is a major showcase of China’s film production that features integrated functions of display and interactive visiting experience, serving the needs of archival collection, academic research and public education.
If you loves the history of films or fans of Chinese films, this is a must place to visit But if you're not both, you will find this place too boring

The former residence of Huang Xing, a Chinese bourgeois democratic revolutionary and one of the major organizers of the Huanghuagang Uprising in Guangzhou in 1910, now serves as the Wukang Road Tourist Information Center and the Xuhui Old House Art Center where tourists are allowed to walk inside to view the flowing lines of architecture and the exquisite relief sculptures in the old Western-style house while looking back on historical events.

Founded by the internationally renowned photography artist Liu Heung Shing, the Center aims to become the first venue in Shanghai that focuses solely on photography and incorporates the functions of an art museum and an experimental art gallery. It is housed in a contemporary building boldly designed by the American architects Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee, which was a stunning masterpiece on display at the “Biennale of West Bund Architecture and Contemporary Art.”
One of the best small photography Museum in China. Professionally presented works. We saw Martin’s work there and thought it was great.

Despite its modern name, the architecture has a long history. It was reconstructed from the Hongying Library in 1933. The library was founded by patriots, sponsored by Ye Hongying, with a collection of 150,000 books, esp. newspapers. The art museum is free to the public on the welfare purpose to show people its spirit of "contemporary, Shanghai, talents, and classical".
