Shanghai Museum: A Journey into Ancient Egypt

#discoverchina The Shanghai Museum’s exhibition on the civilization of ancient Egypt was a mesmerizing exploration of history. The beautifully displayed artifacts, including ornate sarcophagi, statues of gods, and detailed hieroglyphics, offered fascinating insights into Egypt’s art and culture. Informative panels enriched the experience, highlighting beliefs, traditions, and the daily lives of ancient Egyptians. The immersive setup transported me across millennia, creating a profound appreciation for this remarkable civilization. A must-see exhibition for anyone intrigued by history and timeless wonders!

#discoverchina One can never visit Shanghai without visiting the iconic Shanghai Museum. If one were to do so, it’s like a man missing the opportunity to get culturally educated and inspired and it is one of the best curated museums in Shanghai. As it was their local school holiday on the date of our visit, the entrance was extremely crowded with long queues of visitors. It could be the tight security screening at the entrance that hindered the queue from shortening quickly. We spent at least half an hour to queue in order to enter the museum. Inside the museum, there were different levels catering to different types of artifacts and history to be shared. During my visit the 1st floor of the museum has been occupied by a big Egyptian special exhibit (which charges a quite high entrance fee, and doesn’t seem to warrant a visit), the content of the 3rd floor of the museum has been moved out to the Shanghai Museum East Building. The available exhibits are Marco Polo special exhibit (on the 2nd floor), and the All things glittering exhibit, the Ming-Qing Furniture exhibit, and the Chinese Minority Nationality Art exhibit on the 4th floor. The entire exhibit can be visited in about a hour.
