    This museum is closed permanently almost before covid and its not yet opened. I visited on 22nd Oct 2023. But it was closed. Some construction work in going on. Please call them before you plan to go. However you can visit this area, enjoy garden scenery, shopping underneath metro station. Use your negotiation skills.

    This is like the Explorium for Shanghai. A great place to learning some knowledge for old and young. We browsed each hall and were amazed by the display. Our favourite was the automation/robot section. The interaction are well designed. There are heaps of school students visiting too. Some of the items need some maintenance.

    Outside of museum is with ample space, can book tickets online also. Direct exit from subway station. Close to the museum, there's a big shopping area. Prices are bit higher than normal, but always need to bargain. It's fun to shopping there...but do not buy unless you accept the price is right.

    The Shanghai Science & Technology Museum is a great place to take the kids. It is huge - 4 floors, several exhibition hall, and several IMAX/IWERKS theatres. We arrived soon after it opened and stayed until late afternoon. The kids had a great time in the robot and space areas, and the younger ones enjoyed the wildlife exhibitions. It’s easy to get to on the Metro and has its own stop on Line 2.

    It is another educational destination in Shanghai. The museum has 11 different sections embrace different fields of sciences including natural wild life, earth history, health, environment, technologies, space and others It also has 4 theaters (IMAX Theatre and Domes) with different shows at different timings. If you are interested, you may check with show ticket counters the details of today's shows. We had a chance to attend a show at the IMAX Dome and it was really interesting. Name of the show was "Journey to the South Pacific" Underground metro is the best way to get to the museum. The station named with Shanghai Science and Technology Museum Station. PS: you will get distracted once you get to this station since the station is a huge shopping spot. The timing of the museum is from 9am till 5pm. It is closed in Mondays. Admission is around 10 USD

    If you like the technology and scientist, this place is good for you. Better come to this place with your children coz it was fun with them. They can learn scientist on this place. The most museum i like was the zoology section. I like the animal zone from around the world and the tropical forest.

    Great shopping area with everything you'd want from clothing to electronics. One vendor though ripped off my coworker for a model airline airplane charged $65 when is was available for $25 from Dave and Cindy's shop. Shop and bargain! The best shop for airline crew looking for electronics or clothing (Lululemon) is Dave & Cindy at A-19 and A-20. Best for Football jerseys is Jersey City D3-65 ($25 for NFL jersey) DO NOT GO TO D1-13 Carey shop they would not return or refund the airplane model and yelled at us saying it was better quality. IT WAS NOT!

    This place is absolutely great. Definitely a landmark to visit on a school field trip. It is very educational and provides many resources for those that want to learn about science and technology. So many convenient things as well. Not to mention the portable charging stations all around. Come and check it out. It will not disappoint.

    To learn the past, current and future of Shanghai. The city which is poised as the gateway of China to the world with the state of the art systems designed by the people and for the people. The city reinvents itself through innovation and challenge and at the same time conserving the the people's rich culture. The city is self healing and self sustaining. A true masterpiece of architecture and life. The city has big plans for its future and incorporates plans for the Young and old.

    The museum has both wildlife and science but not much on technology though. Bio-technology seems to be quite advance with different displays. Animals from different parts of the world look real. A rat with human ear is something that is amazing. Most of signs and explanation have English translation. Several learning equipment are not really functioned but kid can still enjoys It.

    An educational museum with a large range of animal exhibits. You will be greeted with an African safari theme, followed by a rainforest theme. There are also other space, precious stones, butterfly garden, robotic, spiders exhibits. This museum is free for children below 1.3m.

    there is a great shopping market downstairs that provides everything from jewellery to scarves- make sure you bargain though as tourist prices start high!

    Shopping is all underground adjacent to the subway station entrance. Be prepared for locals trying to steer you towards particular shops and be very very pushy. Some deals are to be had but be prepared to negotiate.
