What travelers say:

Museum Series: May 18th is World Museum Day every year, adhere to the tradition of going to a museum every year Museum Day, this time I chose the nearest to my own glasses museum. The glasses museum is very niche, located on the second and third floors of Baoshan Road Street Cultural Center. It is close to Qingyun Road, a Shanghai Glasses Street, which is a centralized exhibition hall for glasses development. There are few people in the museum, and even on museum day, I am the only visitor. I came here to know that China has had glasses since the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the glasses shape at that time was similar to our current magnifying glass. In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were glasses with frames that were very similar to the glasses we now use. European glasses production technology may also be brought back by Marco Polo from the Yuan Dynasty. This museum has a strong science nature and is very suitable for students to engage in group activities.
