The Shandong Post and Telecommunications Museum is located at No. 77 Jing San Road, inside the China Unicom Shandong Branch. It is the first state-owned industry-themed museum in Jinan City. The museum building itself is a cultural relic, a century-old small building whose beautiful exterior is an artwork in itself.
The museum’s overall structure is of brick and wood, with exterior corners adorned with stone slabs, a roof covered with red tiles, wooden flooring, a main body of two stories above ground, a partial third story as an attic, and a basement. The internal load-bearing structure is all wooden, and the exterior uses red bricks interspersed with stone details. The museum houses a collection of over 200 postal and communication artifacts and more than 400 photographs. Visitors can learn about the history of ancient and modern postal and communication development through the beacon towers and post station videos, Morse code sending and receiving interactive experiences, and LED displays. They can also experience the new achievements of modern communication technology through location services, video surveillance, the Internet of Things, and smart cities.
