I finally figured it out after visiting the Shanghai Glass Museum

The Shanghai Glass Museum is located at 685 Changjiang West Road, Baoshan District, Shanghai. It was formerly the Shanghai Glass Instrument Factory No. 1 and was established on May 18, 2011. It is a non-profit private museum supervised by the Shanghai Cultural Relics Management Committee and initiated and funded by Shanghai Light Industry Glass Co., Ltd.

The museum has undergone a transformation from industrialization to modernization in its architecture, converting the original furnace workshop into an art space. During the renovation process, a large amount of the original spatial structure and details were preserved, and the building was endowed with artistic appreciation, interactive entertainment, and regenerative creativity.

The main hall of the Shanghai Glass Museum features many highlights for visitors, such as the 'Kaleidoscope Entrance,' 'Historical Corridor,' and 'Glass House,' achieving a spatial sublimation.

On April 16, 2015, the museum was approved as a national 4A-level tourist attraction.

- Summer opening hours (May-October): Tuesday to Sunday 9:30-18:00 (ticket sales stop at 17:00), museum night session on Saturdays: 18:00-21:00 (ticket sales stop at 20:00);
- Winter opening hours (November-April): Tuesday to Sunday 9:30-17:00 (ticket sales stop at 16:00), closed on Mondays. If it falls on a public holiday, the museum will remain open as usual.
