The Shanghai Museum was originally housed
within the City Library on Nanjing Road until
1995. This spectacular building is now the
centerpiece of People's Square. The Museum
is a harmonious combination of square shapes
and circular ones, epitomizing the Chinese
traditional concept which imagines heaven
as round and earth as square. The design is
also in keeping with Feng Shui principles
and this perfectly symmetrical building is
said to resemble a large Chinese cooking pot
with two handles protruding from either side.
In the evenings, smoke bellows out of the
vents in the building, making the museum literally
appear to be simmering away in the center
of the city.
As well as embodying the modern spirit of
the city, the museum also houses a great permanent
collection and hosts various exhibitions throughout
the year. Even if you are not a big museum
fan, this place is worth a visit. The displays
are well presented and labeled in English
and Chinese and it's an excellent indication
of the cultural wealth existing in the city.The
museum boasts over 120,000 pieces, including
bronze, ceramics, paintings, calligraphy,
sculpture, ancient Chinese coins, jade furniture,
and western art.
