Canton Modernpresents twentieth-century Cantonese art and visual culture in its full complexity as an important chapter in global modernism. United in a shared linguistic and cultural identity, the southern port cities of Guangzhou (also known as Canton) and Hong Kong were historically marginal in China. The birthplace of revolution, the two cities gave rise to a distinctive visual and artistic modernism, one shaped by cross-cultural interactions and tensions between conservative and progressive artworlds. Cantonese artists broke away from the elegant poetics of classical ink painting to forge a socially oriented realism, depicting subjects ranging from leisure and labour to war and disaster. Working as journalists and publishers, they exploited the immediacy and circulation of print, photography, and cartoons to intervene in and even reform society.

The method of buying tickets is very simple, convenient, and the entrance to the park is also very smooth. It is directly on the mobile phone to brush the QR code. This is the most cost-effective Disneyland working day. There are really not many people. We bought tickets for entering the park 1 hour in advance. Basically, each project has been played twice. Very happy, eating at noon is not bad, chips and fried chicken are the best, all kinds of shops can never be visited. The last fireworks show, I was very happy and dreamy!

Always a highlight, with theme park rides and wildlife viewings in beautiful, scenic South coast of Hong Kong. Just an MTR stop away from Admiralty!

The red diamond experience is superb. There are many people in the cable car queue on May 1st. On the 1st, I saw that the red diamond was overcrowded and immediately placed an order, because it was necessary to book two days in advance. The red diamond saved at least two hours, and the Merry Hall and the viewing platform were also worth it! It&#39;s just a bit late to go, and it&#39;s a pity that some places such as Madame Tussauds have not gone. highly recommended!

A little bit long queue when go up and more crazy when you come down😅 It is recommended to allow time for the tram.
