Shanghai Natural History Museum: Harmony between nature and people
The Shanghai Museum of Natural History is based on the theme of natural person harmony and evolution as the main line, starting with process, phenomenon, mechanism and culture. There are ten permanent themed exhibition areas under the three theme sections of Evolutionary Movement, Life's Picture and Civilized Epic, which explain the various relationships in the natural world.
I don't know if it is one of the largest natural museums in China. Anyway, I am willing to spend a whole day immersed in the joy of nature, like the green snail Jing'an new hall, exhibiting tens of thousands of specimens The collection, a skeleton of the Chinese and Canadian Mamenxilong, about 26 meters long, is the most eye-catching. It is said that this is the largest dinosaur in Asia and the longest neck in the world. The
new building has 5 floors, 2 floors above ground and 3 floors underground. It usually starts from the 2nd floor above ground. The permanent theme exhibition in the museum is divided into three systems: natural evolution, life environment and human civilization. The barrier-free visit route is: the long river of life, the road of the future, the way of evolution, the story of Shanghai, the ecological paradise, the colorful life, the edge of the human land, and the exploration of the earth.

The most worthwhile museum in Shanghai! Shanghai Natural History Museum is one of the largest natural museums in China. It is the world's first natural museum based on the theme system. It is rich in exhibits and high-tech multimedia technology. It tells the history of natural life on earth from ancient times to the present. . Another big attraction is the museum's souvenir shop, where you can't miss out on a variety of exotic animal products. 2F is the first stop of the tour. The theme is the mystery of origin. There is a 4D cinema inside. Where does the universe come from? How big is the universe? The fun and charm of the museum lies in its exploration. After walking through the display area in the first half, you will see a massive mega-animal model coming over, and the visual impact will be absolutely shocking.

An amazing museum with the most fascinating spaces and exhibits. I would need many hours to go through it all again and would do it happily!
It's so beautiful. When I came to Shanghai, I was planning to come here, I was not disappointed to be here.
I went to Shanghai Natural History Museum with my children in the rainy day. The museum has well organised and the fossils are beautiful. Highly recommended place for children in Shanghai.
This place is perfect for a rainy afternoon with kids to stroll around. Amazing exhibition about life on Earth, the stages, the most impressive animals and other essential information about the history of our beautiful nature. We went there because of my 9-year old, but no doubt we also enjoyed, dare to say more like him...
