Natural History Museum

Shanghai relocated it’s natural history museum and created a whole new space.

It opened Spring of 2015 so I had not been there yet.

Great exhibits and I was so happy it wasen’t very busy today!

 

Beautiful architecture of the buiding.

  

Cool lines

  

Me and a short faced bear.

  

It’s supposedly a whoolly mammoth but I think it looks more like a bantha!

 

 

A beautiful African exhibit with a movie showing the different animals in their habitats.

  

Whatcha looking at zebra?

  

The savannah from a distance.

  

Horns and antlers

  

A large dinasaur in the lobby.

Sculpture Garden

Today I ended up doing to a few things I had not done yet in Shanghai. I initially was heading out to the new National History Museum. However, after getting off the metro I realized I could walk through the Jing’an Sculpture Garden.

A beautiful, peaceful garden with very unique large scale sculptures.

A very happy surprise! Highly recommend!
