My Personal Favourite Museum
You have to bring out your inner child when you visit this unique museum, and it is quite amazing to see everything downsized so proportionately. To get to this museum, you take exit 5 of Songjiang Nanjing Rd metro stop, walk to Yitong Rd, turn right, walk through Yitong Park and one block further towards a main street. The museum is located inside an office building in the lower level. Open 10-6 for anyone interested. I love the whimsy of this museum, appreciate the work involved to make miniatures this small. There was even the tiniest 2” TV screen which was actually a working TV screen. The chandeliers in all these dioramas had the tiniest light bulbs in them and working too. There were scenes of villages from the 18th, 19th centuries, of beloved stories like Alice in Wonderland, of fairy stories, Pinocchio, many others. My favourites were just little living rooms in miniature. There was one modern little kitchen donated from Richmond, BC. I also loved a cutaway of Buckingham Palace showing 3 floors of furnished rooms in miniature. Even more amazing was Louis XIV’s Palace of Versaille’s Hall of Mirrors in miniature. This museum remains one of my favourites.

Absolutely epic and gives you goosebumps.
It's a must for collectors or miniatures lover. The details of these miniatures being displayed at the museum definitely worth your time and ticket fees. This museum is located on the basement of a commercial building, upon arriving to this building you will see a pillar with advertisement of this museum, surely you can see that walking towards the building using your google map or other apps. Once you read the entrance, you need to go downstairs and get your ticket, then the entrance is just next to the counter. This place will take 1hour to finish the tour depending on your speed and interest on these. I must say the details on these miniatures are just amazing, some are collected long ago and some are new, they also have a My Comic Era which you can enjoy collector's item of Ultraman and others.
