The world's largest planetarium and the city's tallest observatory are among a list of cultural and tourist sites to gradually reopen in Shanghai.

Shanghai Astronomy Museum, the world's largest in scale, will reopen from July 1, together with Shanghai Science and Technology Museum, and Shanghai Natural History Museum.

But theaters and cinemas inside will remain closed, and tour-guiding services will not be available.

The science museum and the natural history museum will open from 9am to 5pm, Tuesdays to Sundays. The astronomy museum will open from 9:30am to 4pm, Tuesdays to Sundays.

All the three museums require online reservation which is available on their official website and WeChat accounts. On-site ticket booths will remain closed.
