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.

We came here with my children 11 and 9 a few weeks ago. There were no line ups to get in which was great. The displays were well put together and gave a good insight into Shanghai’s past. Well worth the admission price. Take your time and enjoy. Great scale models and full size displays of Shanghai’s past.

Unknown even to the hotel conciergie, we had to go on-line and give the address to the taxi driver in Chinese to reach this amazing private museum. There are 6 floors of displays (technically, one floor is the cafe, which was not staffed). There are Buddhist sculptures, jade figures of figures and beasts in addition to the jewelry, and porcelains. The best display are the pottery figures (coachmen, men on camels, men on horses, women, pavilions from the Han and Tang Dynasties). If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would.

In the bottom section of the pearl Tower that can be incorporated into the Tower ticket. It outlines the historical development of the city. The Chinese do this type of exhibition very well. It is very well presented, the signage is in two languages and explains each exhibition clearly. There is a variety of diorama type exhibitions as well as physical items such as cars, buses and trams. If you go to the tower it is well worth a look. There is also on this level a kids toy area.
