Museums in Shanghai

The home where the first Premier of the People's Republic of China worked and lived.

A replica of the first seismoscope ever invented.

The birthplace of modern China.

This theme park presents 5,000 years of Shanghai history and includes a "sunken" exhibition hall.

The powerful party began with a secret meeting in this shikumen in 1921.

A wall within the institution displays the names of 13,000 Jews who took refuge in the city during World War II.

This supermarket in Shanghai appears to be a typical Chinese convenience store, but all of the bottles are empty and all the containers are filled with nothing but air.

This ratty natural history collection is a charming relic among a city rushing into modernity.
