★★★★★2 months agoThe Hong Kong Heritage Museum is a fascinating place that beautifully combines history, art, culture, and local identity under one roof. The exhibitions are thoughtfully curated and offer a wonderful insight into Hong Kong’s rich traditions and contemporary culture. Spacious, well organized, and engaging, it is a perfect place to spend a few peaceful hours learning and exploring.
Anthony Mak
★★★★★5 months agoThere were two huge banners outside the museum promoting two exhibitions. I thought there were only two exhibitions in the museum. In fact there were at least six exhibitions running at the same time, all free of charge. The topics of the exhibition varies from classic Chinese classic arts to modern Hong Kong culture / films. Could spend a day if I browse through all of them in depth.
