Located in People’s Square, the Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Centre offers you a peek into the Shanghai of yesterday, today and tomorrow, spread over several floors. On the lobby level there is usually a themed display to draw you in.  The main exhibit located on level 3 is a mammoth scale model of the city giving you a bird’s eye view of the existing structures and those planned or under development. Other attractions showcase the city’s history with photos, drawings and multimedia shows. To top it all there is a presentation of the future Shanghai using 3D simulation for an exhilarating flythrough of the city projected on a 360 degree cyclorama screen around the viewing platform. It is so heady you might want to grab the railings provided.  The Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Centre with its distinctive roof structure.   A feature display in the lobby atrium.
