About

Super cool / weird art show by Japanese musicians / toy makers Maywa Denki, up north in a former paper factory. You've probably seen the Otamatone, one of their most viral instruments, on the Internet or at random gift shops in Shanghai. Expect weird toys playing with weird gadgets and lots of Japanese quirkiness. The location itself is reason enough to go for a look. The museum is open Tue-Sun, 10am-6pm. Ticket is 80rmb, or half that if you have WeChat wallet. Check our feature article for more info and photos. Recommended.
