Let's go see the stars at the Shanghai Planetarium⭐️

📍Shanghai Astronomy Museum (Shanghai Tianzhu)
Shanghai Astronomy Museum

For those who love stargazing, this is a must-see. It's a bit far, but worth it. Coming from the airport is much closer than coming from the city, as it's near Shanghai Pudong Airport.

You need to book your tickets in advance. You can't buy them yourself; you need a Chinese phone number or an agency to help you. Upon entering, show your reservation and enter. Your baggage will be scanned, then you'll enter the far left counter where an officer will check your passport and tick your reservation.

Inside, there's a huge model of Earth and other planets in our solar system. There are explanatory signs in Chinese and English. There's also a Chinese spaceship that lets you see what it's like inside, how people live there, and even grow vegetables inside! There's also a space-themed ice cream shop and a souvenir shop.

They also show 4D space-themed movies, but they cost extra, and I think you need to book in advance. There are many shows, depending on the time of day.

🕤 Opening Hours: 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM (Closed every Monday)
💰 Admission: Book through the China EASY Ticket Facebook page.
🚇 Getting There:
1️⃣ Take Metro Line 16 to Dishui Lake Station, Exit 4, then walk for about 700 meters.
2️⃣ From the airport, it's about a half-hour drive.
