Features: The Shanghai Urban History Development Exhibition Hall, commonly known as the "Old Shanghai Wax Museum," is located on the south side of the zero-level hall inside the Oriental Pearl TV Tower in Shanghai. It boasts an exhibition area of 10,000 square meters. The museum was meticulously planned, designed, and built through the collaborative efforts of numerous artists, senior technical engineers, and skilled craftsmen. It is a modern multimedia wax museum that integrates history, culture, appreciation, and entertainment, featuring innovative concepts. Currently, the museum houses over 1,000 precious artifacts and more than 100 lifelike wax figures, organized into six sections: "Chariots and Horses Through the Ages," "Urban Scenery," "A Glimpse of the Opening of the Port," "Ten Miles of Brocade," "Old Traces on the Sea," and "Architectural Expo." Stepping into the wax museum is like arriving in the old city, wandering through the vibrant streets of "Ten Miles of Brocade," experiencing the unique cultural charm of the Shikumen alleys, and witnessing the bloodshed and hardships of the slums. Entering the wax museum is entering the 700-year history of Shanghai's urban development, bringing you countless reflections and memories.
