One of China's most important private art museums, the Long Museum West Bund is a dramatic industrial conversion on the Huangpu riverfront showcasing the Liu Yiqian and Wang Wei collection of modern and contemporary Chinese art. The building itself — a repurposed coal unloading bridge — is architecturally stunning. Admission is steep but the caliber of works, including rare Cultural Revolution-era pieces and blue-chip contemporary art, justifies it for serious art enthusiasts.
