Instructions & Recommendations

If you happen to visit late afternoon, you can combine this attraction with the Liaoning night market, which is within walking distance.

Meta review

Not necessarily listed in travel guidebooks, the museum however makes regular appearances on travel blogs and the online comments are mostly good. In fact, they are excellent as relates to the quality of the craftmanship and attention to details but the attraction is somewhat let down by its small footprint and dated curation + the office basement venue is not exactly an asset.

Environmental & Social

We deem this attraction neutral on both environmental and social standpoints

Conclusion

Something different with true craftmanship but clearly very niche in terms of artwork, meaning it won't be of interest to everybody. However, if you are looking for something a little unique then this may fit the bill.

Key positive

High quality items

Original activity that is also family-friendly

Key negative

Quite small and curation could be improved

Not very easy to find

Suitability

Suitable for all ages. Being located in an office building we think it should be accessible to wheelchair users via lift
