#hongkongtrip My visit to the Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre was a delightful exploration of the city's rich cultural heritage. Located in Kowloon Park, this center provides a captivating glimpse into Hong Kong's history and traditions. The center's architecture is a blend of old and new, with a historic former military building serving as its backdrop. Inside, the exhibits are thoughtfully designed, taking visitors on a journey from ancient Chinese culture to colonial-era Hong Kong. I was particularly impressed with the displays on traditional Chinese rituals, festivals, and craftsmanship. The interactive elements and multimedia presentations added depth to the experience. The Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre is a hidden gem for history enthusiasts and a serene oasis in the bustling city. It left me with a deeper appreciation for the cultural tapestry that makes Hong Kong so unique. #ukcreator #Hongkong

#hongkongtrip Located in Kowloon Park, Kowloon, Hong Kong, Tsimahatsui MTR station Exit A. It was built in 1890’s whilst Hong Kong was under British rule as the site of British Army’s Whitfield Barracks, used until 1967. The construction was made adaptable to local climate through the use of local techniques and materials; pitched tarred Chinese tiled roofs, deep flattened arch colonnaded verandahs of each elevation, wooden shutters, raised semi basement under colonnade verandahs for better ventilation. Later it was restored and converted into museum complex and opened to public in 2005. It features exhibitions on the origins of archaeological treasure of Hong Kong dating back 6,000 years.

"Light of Jinsha - The Ancient Shu Civilisation" exhibition at The Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre The Jinsha site was a recent archaeological discovery in 2001. The major findings are mainly about the traditional cultural customs back in the ancient Shu of 4,000 years ago. The exhibition was not big but there were some interesting relics. My favourite one is the stone set of a tiger, a snake and a kneeling figurine with hands tied at the back. It is believed to be a human sacrifice activity, relating to religion or even occult. There were two grade-one national treasures, gold artefacts - a face-shaped gold foil and a frog-like gold foil. The most significant treasure unearthed at the site was the "gold foil sunbird", but only the replica was exhibited here instead. Majority included utensils made of ivory, gold, bronze and jade. #exhibition #museum #ancient #文物 #relics #museumlover #culture #chineseculture #custom #explorehongkong #hongkongexplore #hk #hongkong #hkiger #hkig #hkinfluencer #hkkol #hkblogger #hklifestyle #展覽 #香港 #香港好去處 #週未好去處

My friend who came with me to visit was particularly interested in this exhibition because there is an exhibition called Dabu Tai Po in the Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Museum. As a Tai Po native, he certainly felt it☺️ The exhibition introduces historically valuable places in Tai Po, such as Guangfu Bridge and Tai Po Yuen Railway Station. There is also a lot of space to introduce the culture of surrounding villages😮 In addition to the exhibition of cultural relics, there is also a multimedia exhibition room introducing Tai Po in the form of a short video. After watching this exhibition, I know Tai Po a lot more😉 #wintertravel #popularexhibitions #localtravel #hongkonggoodplaces #where to go in December

🩵My experience in Hong Kong went so much different than from other 90% of people that i met there. First of all, I went solo with almost no money, overall it was a fun one. Despite having only enough money to buy 2 souvenirs and basically all of the other money went to food - this was so much fun. If you are the same as me, don’t worry, there are lots of things to see without paying any money. There are some tips that I came up with after this trip: -rent a very cheap hotel on Tsim Sha Tsui, it is a value for money, despite having almost no amenities, but it is definitely a motivation to spend as many time outside, other than sitting in a hotel, also my hotel (guesthouse) was held by local people who know cheap places with local food, and a i’ve met some companions there as well - so it is quite a catch -using metro is fun and very fast, but it can be much more expensive than taking a bus, first three days I was taking a metro, and other 3 days I was taking a bus. It is longer than metro, BUT, sitting on the bus or a tram you can take a clear view of the city, and it is much cheaper 😉 - go to local restaurants, and yes, some of them dont have english menu, so you would have to use translator. but it is much more convenient than a slice of pizza for $100😭 - if having trouble finding interesting things or places, just google random tram/bus destinations and just go for it. there is always going to be something interesting, it’s either a view, or a small cafe with convenient prices, or a vintage store with things from 70s 🌃other than that, here is a little list of places that i went to that i’ve saved on google maps, there are popular destinations, and not much ones. ⛩️temple street market: idk about you but it is literally a taobao crap, and it is sold 4x times cheaper on there (trust me i’ve checked), other than that - it looks cute at night 🪴lee tung avenue rooftop garden (200 Queen's Rd E, Wan Chai) just a rooftop garden. if you are loooking for a peaceful place in the city - this is the one 🏢choi hong estate (the samsung colorful wall on the playground or smth): it’s a nice sight, but I mostly enjoyed walking in this district, its like a very nice childhood memory idk ⛪️st. john’s church: such a wonderful place with very nice people, also very calm. spend like 2 hours there 🏞️victoria peak: went up by tram, but got down by foot (and i would recommend you too) there are just commercial shops on top and nothing else, to get a great view i went down by foot, it was very lovely and peaceful, there is also a buddha’s temple on the way down somewhere so try not to miss it 🏫museums: museum of history: i wanted to know about the history of hong kong, so it is the best place to go to and find out yourself, be prepared to read heritage discovery center: very cool archeology museum, if you’re a fanatic, it’s the best thing museum of medical science: once again, if you’re a fanatic - that the best place (this one was $10)

Tsim Sha Tsui is a great spot for family outings and city walks. A must-visit is the Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre, where kids can explore and learn about dinosaur fossils. Additionally, there is a bird garden and a fountain that are worth checking out while you're in the area. It's a perfect place for a leisurely stroll and some educational fun.

There have been many stories about Hong Kong tourists’ passion for dining and shopping. Today we would like to talk about five leisure experience brands that Hong Kong tourists are very fond of in Shenzhen. We also welcome everyone to leave comments at the end of the article. For shopping malls, as it becomes increasingly difficult to attract investment, these experiential format brands can not only fill large areas of empty shops, but also extend the stay time of consumers, thus driving consumption in other categories. 🌟 The first Yuzaki Hot Springs lifestyle TENZ focuses on "lying down comfortably". In Shenzhen today, a number of service formats are emerging around the main business districts near Futian and Luohu ports that cater to the wallets of Hong Kong people, and Yuzaki Hot Springs is one of them. representative. Yuzaki Hot Spring is located in Guohua Road, Harbor City Huating, only 300 meters away from Futian Port and only "one step away" from Hong Kong. This bath center, which has been open for three years, has survived the period of masks and finally ushered in its golden period of making money. The concept it created is "a one-stop hot spring with Japanese style food, drink, fun and bathing". With a total volume of 40,000 square meters on five floors, it integrates multiple services such as catering, spa, leisure, hot spring pool, steaming, etc. It focuses on the concept of "no need to walk around, save energy and lie down comfortably". Different from traditional water clubs, Yuzaki focuses on "conscious consumption". There is no tipping, the charges for each service are clearly detailed, and the price of the same consumption is at least "halved" than in Hong Kong. It is no wonder that Hong Kong customers "flock to it". In addition, it can be seen that the operation team has put a lot of effort into thinking about young people's desire for innovation and change, and has successively launched activities related to durian season, cherries, and gelato. The promotion method is also worthy of consideration by business people. 🎉 The second PARTY DAY sports super playground is a whole day of immersive fun. If you could introduce the PARTY DAY sports super playground in one sentence, it would be "In the huge Longgang Wanda Plaza (total construction area of ​​305,000 square meters), a huge indoor playground (a full 10,000m²)." This brand was also founded in Shenzhen and has created a cyberpunk space as a whole, integrating more than 50 fun and decompression projects. The first category of competitive sports includes bowling, baseball, archery, real ice skating, real CS, rock climbing, basketball, table tennis, etc. The second category of leisure and entertainment includes go-karts, dart bumper cars, billiards, trampolines, sponge pools, pipe slides, slide rails, plum blossom piles, etc. The third category of electronic games includes electronic shooting, multi-person shooting, electronic golf, electronic football, SWTICH game consoles, etc. Consumption is convenient, you can play the whole game with one ticket; the customer base is all-customer, suitable for a family to play, and also suitable for team building in companies like Shenzhen where young people gather together. In addition to having fun, the creation of the entire cyber-style scene also meets the needs of young people to "play well and make movies". A lot of thought was put into the design, which also created more opportunities for the brand to be exposed on social media. . #HotBusiness #三火 Sisters Talking Business #Shenzhen #焠aki

I recently visited the Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre alone, where the Nanhai No.1 and Maritime Silk Road Exhibition is currently being held. The venue is quite spacious and not very crowded. The exhibition is very rich in content, providing an introduction to the Nanhai No.1 and various historical aspects of the Maritime Silk Road. It showcases different artifacts found at sea, such as porcelain, luxury goods, and gold and silver coins. This exhibition attracts history enthusiasts and those interested in ships like the Nanhai No.1. It's a great place to visit and take memorable photos.

Hong Kong is actually very suitable for a slow and in-depth tour. Today, Hou Jue takes you into Kowloon Park beside Nathan Road. There is no noisy traffic sound here, nor are there crowds of people.

From 1983 to 1998, the two buildings were used as a temporary site for the Hong Kong Museum of History. In 2003, the buildings were handed over to the Antiquities and Monuments Office for restoration, and in 2005, they became the Hong Kong Heritage Discovery Centre, used for promoting cultural heritage and educational activities.
