Browse the wonderful museums of People's Square and admire the sleek Grand Theatre and municipal buildings.
Standing in the immense People's Square, it is difficult to visualise how this huge public space was once a thriving oval-shaped racetrack, a social focal point in early 20th century Shanghai. The square today encompasses the immaculately manicured People's Square, the sleek Grand Theatre and a collection of world-class museums. In the square alone you can chart the urban development of this mega-city, survey modern and traditional art and journey through over 5,000 years of cultural development.
