Construction of five world-class cultural facilities will be completed in the Pudong New Area in 2020, according to local authorities.

The construction is part of local government efforts to create a cluster of cultural venues and showcase Shanghai’s diverse cultural charm. It echoes to the city government’s campaign to promote Shanghai’s “four brands”: services, manufacturing, shopping and culture.

The venues are the Shanghai Planetarium, Pudong Art Museum, east branch of the Shanghai Museum, east branch of the Shanghai Library and Expo Culture Park.
