Plan at a glance
A European-style exhibition building entered from the northeast gate
Hayao No. 6 Print Museum is at 326 Nanzhi Road in Daowai District. The main building is a modern European-classical structure on the former site of Harbin Pharmaceutical Group No. 6 Factory. Visitors must enter through the northeast gate; the south gate and other gates may be exits or closed to visitors. Navigate directly to the museum and northeast-gate direction.
Admission is free and no reservation is required for Chinese ID-card holders. Through the end of August, current listed hours are Monday–Sunday 09:00–17:00, with entry stopping at 16:30. From August 31, regular hours are Tuesday–Sunday 09:00–17:00, with entry stopping at 16:00, and Monday closure. Public admission information is mainly written for Chinese ID cards. Visitors using a foreign passport should confirm the reservation or on-site registration method with the museum through an official channel before departure and carry the original passport.
Architecture, prints and commercial displays together
A quick route takes 30–60 minutes and a full route 1.5–2 hours. The fifth-floor Golden Corridor, the 18-metre crystal chandelier on the first floor and the fourth-floor silkworm-wing embroidery gallery are the main content. There is no lift; the common route walks down from the upper floors, so visitors with limited mobility should not plan the full route.
This is a combined architecture, decoration and corporate-display visit, not a quiet gallery devoted only to prints. Some floors include factory history, product displays and health-product sales. A “精品游” premium tour currently listed at about CNY 49 may cover extra areas; the admission ticket does not automatically include it.

Choose your visit
The fifth-floor Golden Corridor
The fifth floor contains the main print gallery and Golden Corridor. Interior decoration, corridor depth and ceiling details suit architecture photography. After entering through the northeast gate, the usual route goes up first and then down; the fifth floor is the main starting point. Keep stairs and corridors clear while photographing.
The first-floor Crystal Hall and European dome
The first-floor Crystal Hall has an approximately 18-metre crystal chandelier, a spiral staircase and a European-style dome. It is the easiest space to identify after walking down and works for a short route focused on decoration and architecture. A low angle can combine people, chandelier and dome.
The clock tower, reliefs and columns outside are worth seeing from the street after the interior. The area around Versailles Water City may offer a full-building view, but roads, businesses and crowds affect the frame. Keep entrances and stairs clear inside and outside.
Fourth-floor silkworm-wing embroidery and factory history
The fourth-floor intangible-heritage gallery displays silkworm-wing embroidery, alongside factory-history and corporate displays. Visitors interested in craft, pharmaceutical history or recent city architecture can visit the fourth floor after the fifth, then continue down to the first.
For another historic urban walking area, see Chinese Baroque Historic Block.
Build your day
30–60-minute architecture route
After security at the northeast gate, go directly to the fifth floor for the Golden Corridor and main print gallery. Walk down to the first-floor Crystal Hall, chandelier and spiral staircase, then leave. This short route focuses on the two main spaces and suits visitors who mainly want architecture and decoration.
There is no lift, so even the short route includes stairs. The 16:00 or 16:30 entry cut-off depends on the season. Late-afternoon visitors should handle the fifth and first floors first rather than entering at the last moment.
1.5–2-hour full route
Enter through the northeast gate and go to the fifth floor for the main gallery and Golden Corridor. Continue down to the fourth-floor factory history and silkworm-wing embroidery, then the first-floor Crystal Hall, spiral staircase and souvenir area before leaving.
The full route does not automatically include the paid premium tour. If an extra area interests you, check what the CNY 49 package includes, its duration and whether it is open that day. With limited stamina, keep the fifth and first floors.
Exterior architecture route
Finish the key indoor floors first, then view the clock tower, reliefs and columns from the street. The area near Versailles Water City may provide a full exterior view. In sunny or snowy weather, watch the ground and road boundary, and keep camera equipment out of vehicle lanes.
After photographing outside, recalculate transport and walking if you are going to Chinese Baroque Historic Block. The two attractions have separate entrances and rhythms; an indoor route does not make them one building complex.
Get there
Metro and bus
Take Metro Line 3 to Haihe East Road Station and use Exit 3, then walk about 10 minutes to 326 Nanzhi Road. Bus routes 201, 84, 58 and 31 stop at Nanzhi Road; enter in the direction of the northeast gate.
Driving and parking
Parking nearby is difficult and spaces are limited, so driving is not recommended. Navigate directly to the northeast gate after public transport. If the car is parked farther away, include the walk back after the visit; watch for ice in winter.
Entrance and leaving
The northeast gate is the only entrance visitors should seek; the south gate and other gates may not serve visitors. After entering, follow the floor signs up and then down through the exhibition. Leave towards the street by the signed exit.
Know before you go
Stairs and seasonal hours
There is no lift, and the common route starts on the fifth floor and walks down. Wear comfortable shoes; visitors with limited mobility can choose the fifth- and first-floor short route. Through the end of August, current listed hours are 09:00–17:00 with entry stopping at 16:30. Regular hours are Tuesday–Sunday 09:00–17:00 with entry stopping at 16:00, and Monday closure.
Admission is free and no reservation is required for Chinese ID-card holders; direct entry with an ID card is the current arrangement. Public admission information is mainly written for Chinese ID cards. Visitors using a foreign passport should confirm the reservation or on-site registration method with the museum through an official channel before departure and carry the original passport. Confirm the operating days and documents for the season.
Commercial displays and the premium tour
Prints, silkworm-wing embroidery, factory history, product displays and sales areas share the building. It can feel warm and noisy when crowded on weekends. The premium tour currently listed at about CNY 49 may cost extra; before paying, ask what floors and time it includes and whether it is open that day.
If you mainly want prints and architecture, complete the open areas on Floors 5, 4 and 1 before deciding on an extra experience. Souvenirs, health products and food cost separately; the first floor has a café and light meals, while nearby dining is limited.
