The Shanghai History Museum on Nanjing West Road held a special exhibition "Jianghai Yuzhen ﹣ Changjiang Estuary No. 2 Scientific Archaeology Conduct", which increased knowledge. In 2015, archaeologists found the ancient ship No. 2 Changjiang Estuary, and carried out underwater archaeological investigations from 2016 to 2021. The ancient ship is located about8-12 meters underwater in the Beigang channel northeast of Hengsha Island in Chongming District. The residual length is about38.1 meters and the width is about9.9 meters. There are 31 cabins that have been discovered. The ship type is speculated to be sand boats. It is the largest and most complete ancient wooden sailboats found in underwater archaeology in China.

The first floor hall of the Shanghai History Museum on Nanjing West Road, the treasure of the town hall sits in the center, which is a pair of HSBC lions with stories. In 1923, when the new building on the Bund of Shanghai HSBC Bank was completed, two bronze lions were customized from the UK; Take the African lion as the prototype, a mouth roar, a mouth squat. Once cast, the mold is destroyed, becoming the world's only original pair of copper lions. This pair of copper lions weighing 2,000 pounds each, one move and one quiet complement each other. The symbol of protection with a mouth open and roaring, named after Alexander Stephen, then general manager of HSBC in Hong Kong, and the symbol of security with a solemn squat, named after Shi Di, then general manager of Shanghai HSBC, symbolized security; This not only depicts the characteristics of the bank's asset protection and security, but also the business process of the bank's "spit" and "na" of funds. After 1956, the HSBC building became the city government office building, and the two bronze lions still guarded the doorway and became the "urban guardians." For more than 40 years, the majestic HSBC lion has been silently watching the changes of the Huangpu River, becoming a beautiful scenery on the Bund. In 1966, considering the safety of cultural relics, the HSBC lion was returned to the museum warehouse; The HSBC Lion was officially displayed to the public until the completion of the Shanghai History Museum in 2018. The HSBC Building (Municipal Government Building) at No. 12, Zhongshan East Road, was granted access by Pudong Development Bank in 1997 and is now the headquarters of the bank. The bank replicated two HSBC lions in the same way, carrying out a brand new mission in their original location.
