Explore the Shanghai Museum's Egyptian Exhibition, a treasure trove guide to save!

😲Wow❗ This year’s hottest cultural event in Shanghai is none other than the Egyptian Exhibition at the Shanghai Museum! A total of 788 ancient Egyptian treasures have grandly “flown” to the museum, and the atmosphere is just insanely cool. 🗺️ Exhibition order: The Land of the Pharaohs ➡️ The Era of Tutankhamun ➡️ The Secrets of Saqqara 🎁 The cultural and creative shop is right on the right after security check, with two floors in total. I have to say, the fridge magnets there are exquisitely made, though the prices are indeed not cheap. 😱 If you miss this exhibition, you’ll really have to wait a long time! The exhibition runs until August 17, 2025. Although the time seems ample, tickets are snapped up like crazy every day. Trust me, don’t hesitate any longer, grab your tickets now👉 👨‍🏫 Want to avoid the crowds? The study tour groups are super thoughtful. 😍 Choosing a study tour group is such a smart move! No need to struggle for tickets or wait in long lines, you get direct green channel access. While others are suffering under the sun, you’re already leisurely enjoying the artifacts~ 🧐 Plus, there’s a professional guide explaining everything throughout, from mysterious myths to the grand historical evolution, making it lively and interesting. Kids get totally captivated (my child followed the guide to hear “The Story of Anubis,” and the experience was amazing). 📅 There are 7 sessions available daily, clearly arranged for morning, afternoon, and evening. Families can flexibly plan their visits according to their own schedules~ 🤩 The small group size means it’s quiet and peaceful, and the audio equipment is incredibly clear—you can even see the patterns on the mummy’s bandages clearly. The experience is simply fantastic! Click below to start your wonderful journey “Through Ancient Egypt”~ 💡 Tips: 1️⃣ Be sure to listen to the explanations. Most people don’t know much about the “life and death” concepts in ancient Egyptian culture, and it’s hard to fully understand just by reading the exhibit descriptions. 2️⃣ The entire exhibition is very rich in content and takes about 3 hours to visit. Besides the first-floor exhibition, the second floor offers a ticketed “The Lost Pharaoh: Immersive Exploration of the Great Pyramid of Khufu” experience (💰198 RMB per person). This 45-minute VR experience lets you feel like you’re walking inside the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is quite interesting. Additionally, the Shanghai Museum plans to hold 10 “Museum Cat Nights” every Saturday evening in September, where visitors can bring their pet cats to visit the exhibition 🐈‍⬛ 🚇 Super convenient location: The exhibition is at the People’s Square Hall (201 Renmin Avenue). Take Metro lines 1, 2, or 8 to People’s Square Station, exit from Exit 1, and it’s just a few steps away! 🎇 There are evening sessions from Friday to Sunday, open until 9:00 PM. The soft lighting on the artifacts instantly transports you to the Nile River, creating an amazing atmosphere that’s simply awesome~
