The Shanghai Museum is only one of the main attractions that people can view in the Peoples Square. The foundations of this museum were laid in 1952 and it has predominantly remained an art museum.

The architecture of the museum building is built with strict accordance to Chinese perception and philosophies. Local architect Xing Tonghe designed the building with a round top upon a square base. This is a literal representation of the Chinese philosophy of a square earth beneath a round sky.

The museum houses eleven galleries and three temporary special exhibits. Among the contents of the museum are over one hundred twenty thousand pieces of furniture, art, bronze, calligraphy, sculptures, paintings, seals, coins and other artifacts.
