Anhui Celebrities Museum
安徽名人馆
A large figure-themed museum in Binhu New District that uses scene reconstructions to present famous Anhui figures throughout history, from Guan Zhong to Bao Zheng.
The Anhui Celebrities Museum is in Binhu New District, next to the Yangtze River Crossing Campaign Memorial Museum. Its building takes the form of 'between clouds and water.' Exhibits cover historical Anhui figures including Guanzi, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Cao Cao, Hua Tuo, Bao Zheng, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Hongzhang, Chen Duxiu and Hu Shi. The museum relies heavily on wax figures, reconstructed street scenes such as the Six-Foot Alley in Tongcheng and the lanes of Huizhou, and multimedia displays, which make it lively and especially suitable for families. Admission is free, but booking with your ID is required, and the museum is closed on Mondays. Getting there: Line 1 plus bus, or taxi. It can be combined with the Yangtze River Crossing Campaign Memorial Museum and the Anhui Innovation Museum in a single day.
