Yesterday, I took Jessica to the newly opened Shanghai Madame Tussaud’s. Madame Tussaud’s famous waxwork exhibition was originally established in Paris in 1770 and moved to London in 1802. The Shanghai branch is located on the 10th floor of the New World Department Store on Nanjing Road. It is not a surprise that the place was very crowded. After waiting in a line for a ticket for about half an hour, finally we got into this wax museum.
However, the place was amazing. I have never been to such a wax museum before. The 75 wax figures initially installed were so vivid, and more to be added according to the guide book. I took pictures with “people” I would not be able to meet in my lifetime, I think.
The Adult ticket cost 125 RMB (15.6 USD).
charmy samaniego,
which country are you from? Did you meant to invite the people called madame tussauds? If so, I am sorry, you can’t do that now.
Madame Tussauds now represents a world-renowned institution that is derived from the home of Madame Tussauds in 1835. The current wax museum is opened by her successor.
There six branches in the world now: London, New York, Las Vegas, Amsterdam, Hong Kong and Shanghai. You can reach more info from the official site: http://www.madame-tussauds.com
amazing!!!! is there a way we can invite madame tussauds in our country? and what are the requirements needed? tnx and hope for your response. god bless!
Thanks for the post. I had no idea Madame Tussaud’s was opening up in Shanghai! I will definitely have to stop in the next time I visit. A 30-minute wait actually isn’t too bad. From what I’ve heard, it’s not unusual to have to wait an hour or more at the London location.
