Sun Yat-sen's Former Residence
The two-storey villa on Xiangshan Road (then Rue Molière) where Sun Yat-sen and Soong Ching-ling lived from 1918 to 1924 — the house where he wrote 'The International Development of China' and met the Comintern's envoys. Kept with the family's furniture; a small exhibition hall next door. Ten yuan, closed Mondays, opposite Fuxing Park — and prone to short closures, so check the museum's notice board online before walking over.

Rarely a queue; red-tourism groups come in the morning, afternoons are quiet.

Answers you'll need here
- Do Shanghai museums still need a reservation, and can I book on a foreign passport?Depends · Big museums are walk-in again. Where you still book, official channels take passports; WeChat-only venues are the catch.
- Can I hire a guide inside Shanghai's museums, or buy a third-party 'with guide' ticket?No · Not inside. The three big sites ban paid outside guides; use their free scheduled tours and audio guides instead.
