- Magnus KOslo, Norway12 contributionsThis place is huge with lots of options. We choose Suits by Susan on the second floor and really liked it. In terms of service and value it was great!Written 30 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Martian_MikeShanghai, China12 contributionsjust noticed to everybody, the museum has been built 25 years, and now it is making over. But still a good place to take shot and Nanjing road is not far away from it. Walk on the Nanjing road to East direction，you could be to Shanghai BUND.Written 4 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Robin J1 contributionSmall museum tucked away inside building without much obvious signage to help. However, once found it, lots of exhibits categorised into eras/subject. Interesting for a look through for most people, I feel for those highly interested in the subject there's lots to dig through.
Paid for ticket on entry.Written 14 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Heping Hotel has been my favorite hotel in China since 2018. I met Zoey, their talented and excellent front desk operator who helped me a lot during my stay. China is changing rapidly since last I was there. Zoey was kind and informative. She made my visit in China much more easier. The room she gave me have impeccable street view. It always makes me want to extend my stay.Written 27 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SaishidanSydney, Australia106 contributionsFrom the other reviews on here, I visited Lucy’s store. Everyone is correct, she is absolutely fantastic to deal with. Her service is great and prices were open to negotiation and were really good.
She is located on the ground floor in the first row of vendors. Just look for Lucys sign.Written 2 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Just walking distance from the Changshou metro station line 7. There’s a variety of statues of gods and goddesses to be admired snd prayed (if you are a Buddhist). There are 2 Jade buddhas, one reclining and one sitting upright. Both in different parts of the temple. The reclining buddha is in white jade and the sitting buddha is in green jade. Sitting buddha sits in an airconditioned room where no photography is allowed. Pretty cool visit!Written 2 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- HeatherandKelSalt Lake City, UT91 contributionsLoved this museum. Had lived in Shanghai for over a year before ever going. Wish I had been sooner and had taken visitors. The model of Shanghai is one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. Great rainy day, or bad air day activity.Written 9 April 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Deanosaur89Edmonton, Canada2,047 contributionsWe came to M50 on the weekend and it was not too busy. There are lots of exhibits you can walk in for free and see artists at work. The area also has many cafes and a few restaurants but none were overly appealing.Written 3 April 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
