This museum was very useful and provided some incite into Hong Kongs history. A great taster before hitting the sites. Free on Wednesdays

This museum is just fantastic for getting to know about Hong Kong. It is organised into 8 parts and is huge. I didn't take everything in the first time so I have since revisited and I think I would go again. Could easily spend quite a few hours there. On Wednesdays it is free to enter and the rest of...

One day a week is free, but I'd gladly pay t visit this museum. It is well planned, with Hong Kong's journey through history arranged chronologically. Many of the exhibits are interactive and life sized in realism. Loved the commercial street, bun festival and life of the fishermen. Can be crowded with school children but we last visited on 'free... More

Going to museums has always been a part of our itinerary everytime we travel. I am especially addicted to history museums and I wasn't disappointed when I went to the HK Museum of History. I got to understand the locals and their culture through their history. The whole trip wasn't boring at all because of the many interactive potions of... More

We were recommended to visit the Hong Kong Museum of History by a local who suggested that a tour to the Hong Kong story would help put Hong Kong in context. And 'wow' does it do that.

Tells the history of Hong Kong brilliantly- you will need at least 3 hours to cover ALL the exhibits. Check out their special exhibitions too... when we were there they had the Mesopotamia exhibition which we had miseed in Melbourne. Avoid the coffee in the cafe- stick to tea.

we visited it in a week day cos once a week it's free of charge. good choice! we enjoyed it. this small country has so much to tell you. it was very impressive the video of the retirement of the british after their reign there. recomended it

Off the tourist track but well worth the walk to find it. Parking very difficult. Modern building that tracks the history of Hong Kong from the Jurassic times to the present day..Reasonable cafe and good toilets.
