The impressive China Tobacco Museum can be easily spotted by anyone visiting the Yangpu District mainly due to its exceptional granite structure and contemporary architectural style. It is an unmatched place for those who wish to gather information on the present use, history and developments of tobacco in China.
This informative five storey museum is complete with important relics and artifacts, documents and exhibition spaces. The first three levels are dedicated as full-fledged exhibition halls while floor number four and five are kept as the business area. The China Tobacco Museum boasts of seven well maintained display halls that include the hall for tobacco development, the hall for tobacco agriculture, tobacco industry, the management of tobacco, culture, trade as well as a hall providing information on smoking. There is also a hall dedicated for smoking control.
The museum also contains a hall that displays many vital documents, a large lecture room, auxiliary rooms, a vast storage area, and visitor guide system as well as a resource information database.

However, the China Tobacco Museum is not merely a place that depicts the use, history and development of tobacco in China. It is a matchless place for research, sightseeing as well as entertainment.
