Every time I walk into a museum, I admire the wisdom of ancient people and sigh that a country or a place has a long history. Slowly, through the culture here, I love it more, love it more and understand it more.
In a beautiful and varied city like Shanghai, we can also see many magnificent or unique museum buildings. Whether you love history or not, you can't help but set foot here.
Then, below, Bian Xiao will introduce some interesting museums to you!
Shanghai Fire Museum
In fact, I think everyone in this museum should go once, at least for safety and knowledge.

Early personal fire-fighting equipment, fire engines, automatic fire extinguishing devices and many other modern Shanghai fire-fighting cultural relics can make people fully understand the leap of Shanghai fire-fighting industry from gestation and development to today. ?
The part of virtual reality is always the most attractive. There is a multifunctional fire science and technology education experience hall in the museum, which adopts world-class high-tech display technology, including dynamic 4D cinema, virtual escape experience space, interactive virtual fire laboratory and so on. It is worth personal experience to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
