Shanghai Textile Museum

　　Shanghai Textile Museum is situated on the former site of the ninth factory of Shanghai Shenxin Textile at the south bank of the Suzhou River, north of Macau Road, east of Changhua Road, and the northwest wing of Changshou Road Bridge. It features an outdoor exhibition area of 1,500 square meters and an indoor exhibition area of 4,480 square meters, making it a regional industry museum. Through artifacts, documents, scenes, images, models, multimedia, and more, the museum showcases the historical development of the textile industry in the Shanghai area. It highlights the heroic history of Shanghai’s textile workers, who, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, actively participated in struggles against imperialism, feudalism, and oppression, as well as their glorious achievements during the socialist construction period. The grand introductory hall, the profound History Hall, the time-spanning Highlights Hall, the interactive Science Popularization Hall, and the delightful Beijing & Kunqu Opera Costume Hall together present over 6,000 years of industrial history and culture of Shanghai’s textile sector. The museum has become a national model base for spiritual civilization in the textile industry, a national science education base, a Shanghai patriotic education base, a Shanghai science education base, a Shanghai industrial tourism base, and a revolutionary memorial site for the “February 2nd Struggle” at Shenjiu.
