The China Silk Museum extends from fiber and loom technology to archeology, protection and restoration, clothing and global exchanges. Weaving equipment, fabric structures and preserved clothing help viewers understand how materials, craftsmanship and aesthetics change across regions and eras. They are a very important indoor cultural supplement to Hangzhou's landscape attractions.

Getting there

The museum is located on the south side of West Lake, so it is suitable to be scheduled on the same day as the southern attractions.

Practical notes

Check out the latest exhibitions and appointment notices before choosing a focus around textile technology, ancient collections or the history of clothing. There is more than one building in the museum area, and there may be temporary closures; it can be combined with the West Lake South Line, but it is not appropriate to compress the two into a short stay.
