Once the Shanghai Chunming Woolen Mill, this riverside industrial complex has transformed into one of Shanghai’s most vibrant art districts. The name M50 comes directly from its address, but today it stands for much more — a thriving community where artists, designers, and creatives converge to shape the city’s contemporary culture.

🌟 Why Visit
• Galleries Galore – From cutting-edge contemporary to classic oil paintings, dozens of galleries welcome visitors year-round.
• Street Art Hotspot – Walls splashed with colorful graffiti make for perfect photo backdrops.
• Creative Energy – Watch artists at work in their studios or chat with designers in small independent shops.

💡 Visitor Info
• Opening: Most areas open daily; individual galleries have their own hours.
• Admission: Public spaces are free; select galleries charge between ¥5–¥20.
• Best Time: Weekday afternoons for fewer crowds and more time to explore exhibitions.

✨ Pro Tip: Bring a camera and an open mind — M50 is as much about the people you meet and the stories you uncover as it is about the art you see.

M50 Creative Park is where Shanghai’s industrial past meets its creative future — a must-visit for art lovers, urban explorers, and anyone curious about the city’s ever-evolving cultural scene.
