Description

This three-floor paean to puffing is conveniently located opposite the Shanghai Cigarette Factory in the Yangpu District. It holds the dubious accolade of being the world's largest tobacco museum, and pays homage to the habit which has 350 million Chinese people in its grip. It includes beautifully tacky waxwork effigies of famous smokers from history, assorted gadgets and smoking paraphernalia (including Deng Xiaopeng's 'baccy box' and a smoking room.
