💎 Insider Tips

⚡
Tickets are notoriously hard to get; you must book via the WeChat mini-program exactly at midnight 3 days in advance.
⚡
Don't miss the 'Oculus' at the entrance, which tracks the sun's path like a massive sundial.
⚡
Allow at least 4 hours to explore; the scale of the exhibits is truly vast and immersive.
⚡
Visit on a weekday to avoid the extreme crowds of school groups and families.
