The Rare Animal Specimen Exhibition is held in collaboration with the Shanghai Natural History Museum, enabling people to admire the artistic creations of animal specimens by Shanghai craftsman Shan Kun.

In the aerospace exhibition area, visitors can follow the national masters of hand, such as Wang Shunqun and Cao Yi, through exhibits like the models of the Chinese space station and Yutu lunar rover.

Shanghai has selected and cultivated 783 Shanghai craftsmen since 2016 and their innovative achievements have created many “world firsts” and “Chinese miracles.”

The exhibition also features a range of innovative results from them, including the world’s first 100-meganewton standard force measuring machine, more than 120 pieces of domestic substitute precision components, and models of the national bobsleigh track for the Beijing Winter Olympics and Shanghai Juss International Equestrian Center, among others.
