    A truly memorable visit to the Heritage Mei Ho House in Hong Kong. I really enjoyed the guided tour—both engaging and insightful. The guide has an excellent knowledge of the history of public housing in Hong Kong and brings it to life in a very accessible way. It’s not just about public housing history; you actually step back into an entire era, and at times it’s quite emotional. I highly recommend this visit, especially since it’s free. It’s a great reminder that price does not define quality. I’ll definitely come back with my family so they can discover the Hong Kong of my childhood.

    Pretty educational and immersive museum on the everyday lives of Hong Kongers in the 50s and 60s. Free guided tours are offered in Cantonese, English and Mandarin. Make sure to check their website to see when the English version is available since it alternates between that and Mandarin weekly. The tour guide did a really great job of bringing the exhibitions to life, I highly recommend it.
