Beijing Planning Exhibition Hall
About This Museum
Forget dusty artifacts; this museum is a thrilling dive into Beijing's future, all seen through the lens of its ambitious urban design. Spread across four immersive floors, it uses jaw-dropping models and interactive tech to tell the story of a metropolis in constant motion. The sheer scale of the main model, showcasing the city from the Forbidden City to the distant suburbs, is an unforgettable sight. It’s less a look back in time and more a front-row seat to the city's next chapter.
Collection Highlights
The undisputed star is the vast, breathtaking scale model of central Beijing, which you can view from a suspended walkway. Other gems include historic maps tracing the city's evolution and detailed displays on major projects like the Olympic Park and Daxing Airport.
Visitor Information
It's centrally located just off Tiananmen Square, making it a perfect air-conditioned escape after visiting more traditional sites. Give yourself at least two hours to really absorb all the multimedia exhibits—kids especially love the interactive zones.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a modern building with a soaring glass and steel atrium, its clean, contemporary lines feel like a perfect fit for its forward-looking subject matter.
