Huge, super old-school stand alone gem with lots of marble flooring and a grand staircase, built in 1928 by Hungarian architect Laszlo Hudec who designed a ton of famous buildings in Shanghai (including Wukang Mansion). Tons of history here -- all the newest technology came here first back in the day. The place is huge, with 1794 seats spread among 6 halls, including the massive, two-tiered main room. There's one VIP room with 25 seats. They have 3D and 4K; no IMAX. Tickets are 80-120rmb (around half that with an app like Gewara), and cheaper in the morning Tuesday and Wednesday tickets are half price. Sweet popcorn only. Cash only. Showtimes: Gewara.
