Chinese Chamber of Commerce Museum, Shanxi, China
4.0 (20 reviews) Spent Ranking #16 in Pingyao County Speciality Museums
Very interesting
Although the exhibits here are not all that interesting, like everything else in Pingyao, it's really the buildings, the courtyards and the history that you come to experience. There's a lot of atmosphere and great architectural detail to soak up.

Some interesting history
The Chamber of Commerce Museum is one of many, however it is pretty interesting and has some displays on how they counted money that came in every day, as well as offices for heads of post and secretaries. It seemed like Pingyao would have been a very busy place if you went back a few centuries...some fascinating history. Worth a look if you're in the area! Besides, the ticket pays for 3 days. You might as well.

Not top 5 but top 10
The building style is same as other buildings in ancient Pingyao. This place highlights history of Chinese Chamber of Commerce with pictures and explanation. Interesting, but I would say it's not my top 5 places to visit. If you have time after visiting the Temple of City God, City Government, Escort Agency, and Former Bank, then this can be a good option.
