Explore the city through tea, silk, medicine and the objects of its history.
Hu Qing Yu Tang Chinese Medicine Museum
The museum is set within the historic medicine-shop environment near Qinghefang. It offers cultural and historical context for traditional medicine; museum information should not be treated as personal medical advice. Confirm access and exhibitions locally.
Hangzhou History Museum
Discover objects and interpretation relating to the city’s past. Check the museum’s visitor information for current exhibitions and opening arrangements.
China National Tea Museum
Tea history, production and appreciation make this a useful companion to a visit to Hangzhou’s tea-growing landscapes. Longjing is part of the story, alongside the wider culture of Chinese tea.
China National Silk Museum
Explore textile history, silk techniques and changing dress through the museum’s collections and exhibitions. Visit the official website for the current programme.
Add Liangzhu to your plans
The Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City offer a further perspective on the region’s early heritage. Plan the archaeological site separately from museums and confirm tickets, transport and access before travelling.
