Shenzhen Museum

深圳博物馆

A comprehensive museum covering Shenzhen's ancient history and the reform and opening-up era. Its 'Shenzhen Reform and Opening-up History' exhibition is a standout.

The Shenzhen Museum has several venues, including the Ancient Art Museum (the former main building) and the History and Folk Culture Museum (east wing of the Civic Center). The History and Folk Culture Museum's 'Shenzhen Reform and Opening-up History' exhibition vividly shows the transformation from a small fishing village into a modern metropolis. Exhibitions on 'Ancient Shenzhen', 'Shenzhen in Modern History' and 'Shenzhen Folk Culture' are also rich. Admission is free with a reservation, and the museum is usually closed on Mondays. The Civic Center venue is at Civic Center Station on Metro Line 4, next to Lianhuashan Park.
