Located within Guangfulin Country Park in Songjiang district, the Guangfulin Stone Museum is a national AAA-rated scenic site dedicated to Shanghai-style ornamental stone culture. The museum features seven themed zones, including a mineral gallery, 5D cinema, 2D science education area, and a desert exploration zone.

The exhibition halls showcase large-scale natural ornamental stones, revealing the distinctive forms shaped by geological movements through uncarved monoliths. Mineral specimens from the Earth's crust are also on display, illustrating the relationship between material composition and chemical elements. Among the special collections are stone sets that resemble food, such as lifelike pastries and dishes, created through natural mimicry.
