Sichuan Science and Technology Museum

Sichuan Science and Technology Museum, Science museum in Qingyang District, Chengdu, China.

The Sichuan Science and Technology Museum occupies a five-storey brick-and-concrete building completed in October 1969 as the Mao Zedong Thought Victory Long Live Exhibition Hall, later the Sichuan Provincial Exhibition Hall. It faces south on the north side of Tianfu Square, measures 117.5 to 132.5 m east-west and 107.5 m north-south, and holds 41,800 m² of floor space, about 25,000 m² of it exhibition area.

The building was completed in October 1969 as the Mao Zedong Thought Victory Long Live Exhibition Hall, built for the 20th anniversary of the People's Republic; its construction removed the last surviving southern gate, Mingyuan Tower and Zhigong Hall of the old Shu princely palace. Renamed the Sichuan Provincial Exhibition Hall in 1979, it was converted from 2005 and opened as the Sichuan Science and Technology Museum on 2 November 2006. A renovation from June 2016 to November 2017 cost about CN¥120 million.

The building's past as the Mao Zedong Thought Victory Long Live Exhibition Hall survives in its plan: the main block was laid out in the shape of the character 中, which with the Mao statue in front formed 忠 (loyalty). The vertical stroke, the Dongfanghong hall, was demolished in the 2006 conversion. A corridor honouring notable Sichuan scientists opened in 2021.

The museum stands immediately north of Tianfu Square in Qingyang District, in the building completed in October 1969. The first three floors hold the 16 permanent exhibition zones, while the youth science-education center occupies the fourth floor. Basic exhibitions have been free of charge since 1 May 2015, and the museum receives more than one million visitors a year, so allow time for the interactive stations.

The fourth floor features specialized workshops including a Robot Workshop and fire safety drill stations where visitors can conduct hands-on experiments. These practical activities allow visitors to directly experience scientific concepts rather than simply observing them.
