Hong Kong Museum of Coastal Defence 🚀🚁🚜Part 2

Hello everyone, this time I will take you into the secrets of the bed in the museum. - Military layout This exhibition hall describes Britain's defence layout in Hong Kong over the past century, including the military establishment in the early years of the port, the importance of Hong Kong in maintaining Britain's interests in the Far East, the changes in coastal batteries from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, Britain's preparations for a Japanese invasion, and the arrangements made to strengthen Hong Kong's defence after World War II. Haiphong Port Facilities Hong Kong controls the mouth of the Pearl River and is the only way to the southeast waters. The British army coveted Hong Kong's maritime strategic value and developed Hong Kong into a naval base. This exhibition hall will explain the relevant historical background and introduce the hospital ships and base ships that have been berthed in Victoria Harbour for a long time, the docks that provide repairs and supplies for ships, and introduce famous warships that have visited Hong Kong. The September 18th Incident in 1931 marked the beginning of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Hong Kong people supported the war in various ways. The Hong Kong and Kowloon Independent Battalion of the Dongjiang Column fought hard against the invaders and ushered in the final victory. Use sound and images to tell the history of the invasion of China and Hong Kong’s experience in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and pay tribute to the anti-Japanese heroes. Here you can find many different military equipment, and you can touch them with your hands to feel the actual situation of the war at that time and compare it with the current reality. The ammunition is quite diverse, including tanks, armored vehicles, airplanes, cannons, guns, etc. If you are interested, you can leave some comments. Thank you for your advice.
